1
I used to rule the world
2
Seas would rise when I gave the word
3
Now in the morning I sweep alone
4
Sweep the streets I used to own
5
I used to roll the dice
6
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
7
Listen as the crowd would sing:
8
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
9
One minute I held the key
10
Next the walls were closed on me
11
And I discovered that my castles stand
12
Upon pillars of sand, pillars of sand
13
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
14
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
15
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield
16
My missionaries in a foreign field
17
For some reason I can't explain
18
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
19
That was when I ruled the world
20
It was the wicked and wild wind
21
Blew down the doors to let me in.
22
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
23
People couldn't believe what I'd become
24
Revolutionaries wait
25
For my head on a silver plate
26
Just a puppet on a lonely string
27
Oh, who would ever want to be king?
28
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
29
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
30
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield
31
My missionaries in a foreign field
32
For some reason I can't explain
33
I know Saint Peter will call my name
34
Never an honest word
35
But that was when I ruled the world
36
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)
37
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
38
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
39
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield
40
My missionaries in a foreign field
41
For some reason I can't explain
42
I know Saint Peter will call my name
43
Never an honest word
44
But that was when I ruled the world
45
Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh
