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 are 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 a champion on the drums

People couldn't believe how could he become

Revolutionaries wait

For God sleeps on this space

Just a puppet on a lonely string

Oh who would ever want to be king

Now I hear Jerusalem bells are 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

I know Saint Peter won't call my name

Never an honest word

That was when I ruled the world

I hear Jerusalem bells are 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

That was when I ruled the world

World
