I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the
morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll
the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would
sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
One minute I
held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my
castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
I hear
Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror
my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I
can't explain
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
That was
when I ruled the world
(Ohhh)
It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in.
Shattered windows and the sound of
drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh
who would ever want to be king?
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My
missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know
Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I
ruled the world
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My
missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know
Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I
ruled the world
Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh
