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