[00:13.21] I used to rule the world

[00:16.58] Seas would rise when I gave the word

[00:19.61] Now in the morning, I sleep alone

[00:23.61] Sweep the streets I used to own

[00:41.11] I used to roll the dice

[00:44.84] Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes

[00:47.87] Listen as the crowd would sing

[00:51.60] Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!

[00:54.85] One minute I held the key

[00:58.61] Next the walls were closed on me

[01:01.34] And I discovered that my castles stand

[01:05.60] Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

[01:09.60] I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing

[01:12.87] Roman Cavalry choirs are singing

[01:16.35] Be my mirror, my sword and shield

[01:23.35] My missionaries in a foreign field

[01:24.10] For some reason I can't explain

[01:26.88] Once you go there was never, never an honest word

[01:33.11] And that was when I ruled the world

[01:50.35] It was a wicked and wild wind

[01:54.11] Blew down the doors to let me in

[01:56.85] Shattered windows and the sound of drums

[02:01.13] People couldn't believe what I'd become

[02:04.59] Revolutionaries wait

[02:08.35] For my head on a silver plate

[02:10.84] Just a puppet on a lonely string

[02:15.37] Oh, who would ever want to be king?

[02:19.10] I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing

[02:22.37] Roman Calvary choirs are singing

[02:25.85] Be my mirror, my sword and shield

[02:29.61] My missionaries in a foreign field

[02:32.85] For some reason I can't explain

[02:36.62] I know Saint Peter won't call my name

[02:40.35] Never an honest word

[02:43.11] But that was when I ruled the world

[03:00.14] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

[03:03.10] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

[03:06.13] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

[03:09.83] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

[03:13.35] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

[03:15.09] I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing

[03:18.09] Roman Calvary choirs are singing

[03:21.61] Be my mirror, my sword and shield

[03:24.63] My missionaries in a foreign field

[03:28.37] For some reason I can't explain

[03:31.87] I know Saint Peter won't call my name

[03:35.10] Never an honest word

[03:38.39] But that was when I ruled the world
