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
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

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's 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 cavaly 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

Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
Missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world
