[00:01.22] I used to rule the world

[00:03.88] Seas would rise when I gave the word

[00:06.80] Now in the morning, I sleep alone

[00:10.79] Sweep the streets I used to own

[00:15.84] I used to roll the dice

[00:19.55] Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes

[00:23.00] Listen as the crowd would sing

[00:26.45] Now the old king is dead, long live the king

[00:29.38] One minute, I held the key

[00:33.63] Next the walls were closed on me

[00:36.28] And I discovered that my castles stand

[00:40.53] Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

[00:44.52] I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin'

[00:47.71] Roman Cavalry choirs are singin'

[00:51.16] Be my mirror, my sword and shield

[00:54.61] My missionaries in a foreign field

[00:58.33] For some reason, I can't explain

[01:01.25] Once you'd gone, there was never, never an honest word

[01:08.18] And that was when I ruled the world

[01:12.43] It was a wicked and wild wind

[01:16.42] Blew down the doors to let me in

[01:19.61] Shattered windows and the sound of drums

[01:23.59] People couldn't believe what I'd become

[01:27.05] Revolutionaries wait

[01:30.77] For my head on a silver plate

[01:33.42] Just a puppet on a lonely string

[01:36.61] Oh, who would ever want to be king?

[01:41.93] I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin'

[01:45.12] Roman Cavalry choirs are singing

[01:48.84] Be my mirror, my sword and shield

[01:52.02] My missionaries in a foreign field

[01:55.48] For some reason, I can't explain

[01:59.20] I know Saint Peter won't call my name

[02:02.11] Never an honest word

[02:05.56] But that was when I ruled the world

[02:11.41] Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh

[02:14.89] Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh

[02:17.82] Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh

[02:21.27] Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh

[02:24.99] Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh

[02:27.38] I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin'

[02:29.77] Roman Cavalry choirs are singin'

[02:33.22] Be my mirror, my sword and shield

[02:36.42] My missionaries in a foreign field

[02:39.88] For some reason I can't explain

[02:43.60] I know Saint Peter won't call my name

[02:46.52] Never an honest word

[02:49.97] But that was when I ruled the world
