[00:06.84]I used to rule the world
[00:10.85]Seas would rise when I gave the word
[00:13.91]Now in the morning I sleep alone
[00:18.98]Sweep the streets I used to own
[00:21.99]
[00:29.79]I used to roll the dice
[00:33.81]Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
[00:37.32]Listen as the crowd would sing
[00:41.05]
[00:41.70]Now the old king is dead Long live the king
[00:45.62]One minute I held the key
[00:49.13]Next the walls were closed on me
[00:52.46]And I discovered that my castles stand
[00:56.32]Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
[01:01.32]
[01:08.81]I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
[01:11.05]
[01:12.61]Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
[01:16.36]Be my mirror my sword and shield
[01:21.41]My missionaries in a foreign field
[01:23.94]For some reason I can't explain
[01:27.77]Once you go there was never never an honest word
[01:32.14]
[01:35.32]That was when I ruled the world
[01:39.30]
[01:45.81]It was the wicked and wild wind
[01:50.19]Blew down the doors to let me in
[01:53.35]Shattered windows and the sound of drums
[01:56.78]
[01:58.12]People couldn't believe what I'd become
[02:01.55]Revolutionaries wait
[02:04.34]
[02:05.42]For my head on a silver plate
[02:08.73]Just a puppet on a lonely string
[02:13.07]
[02:13.70]Oh who would ever want to be king
[02:16.73]
[02:17.43]I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
[02:19.87]Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
[02:24.94]Be my mirror my sword and shield
[02:28.91]My missionaries in a foreign field
[02:31.95]
[02:32.64]For some reason I can't explain
[02:36.46]I know Saint Peter won't call my name
[02:39.92]Never an honest word
[02:41.61]
[02:43.16]But that was when I ruled the world
[02:47.83]
[03:17.11]Ooooo ooooo ooooo oooooo ooooo
[03:34.84](repeat with chorus)
[03:35.53]I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
[03:37.59]Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
[03:41.15]Be my mirror my sword and shield
[03:44.92]My missionaries in a foreign field
[03:48.60]For some reason I can't explain
[03:51.98]I know Saint Peter won't call my name
[03:56.03]Never an honest word
[03:57.30]
[03:59.20]But that was when I ruled the world
