| [00:07.699] |
I used to rule the world |
| [00:11.819] |
Seas would rise when I gave the word |
| [00:14.549] |
Now in the morning I sleep alone |
| [00:18.669] |
Sweep the streets I used to own |
| [00:22.469] |
|
| [00:34.320] |
I used to roll the dice |
| [00:36.800] |
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes |
| [00:38.200] |
Listened as the crowd would sing |
| [00:40.370] |
Now the old king is dead long live the king |
| [00:41.770] |
One minute I held the key |
| [00:45.380] |
Next the walls were closed on me |
| [00:49.100] |
And I discovered that my castles stand |
| [00:52.490] |
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand |
| [00:55.350] |
|
| [00:56.140] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing |
| [00:59.740] |
Roman cavalry choirs are singing |
| [01:03.700] |
Be my mirror, my sword and shield |
| [01:06.760] |
Missionaries in a foreign field |
| [01:10.110] |
For some reason I can't explain |
| [01:13.520] |
Once you'd gone there was never |
| [01:16.160] |
Never an honest word |
| [01:19.800] |
And that was when I ruled the world |
| [01:24.400] |
|
| [01:36.600] |
It was a wicked and wild wind |
| [01:40.140] |
Blew down the doors to let me in |
| [01:43.900] |
Shattered windows and the sound of drums |
| [01:47.300] |
People couldn't believe what I'd become |
| [01:50.580] |
Revolutionaries wait |
| [01:54.600] |
For my head on a silver plate |
| [01:57.190] |
Just a puppet on a lonely string |
| [02:00.929] |
Oh who would ever want to be king? |
| [02:04.280] |
|
| [02:04.798] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing |
| [02:08.497] |
Roman cavalry choirs are singing |
| [02:11.837] |
Be my mirror, my sword and shield |
| [02:15.157] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [02:18.777] |
For some reason I can't explain |
| [02:22.270] |
I know St Peter won't call my name |
| [02:25.377] |
Never an honest word |
| [02:28.517] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
| [02:32.906] |
|
| [02:59.587] |
Hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing |
| [03:03.117] |
Roman cavalry choirs are singing |
| [03:07.579] |
Be my mirror, my sword and shield |
| [03:10.107] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [03:13.347] |
For some reason I can't explain |
| [03:16.587] |
I know St Peter won't call my name |
| [03:19.867] |
Never an honest word |
| [03:23.357] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
| [03:28.557] |
