00:01One, two, three, yup!
00:30I used to rule the world Seas would rise when I gave the word
00:36Now in the morning I sleep alone Sweep the streets I used to own
00:57I used to roll the dice Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
01:04And listen as the crowd would sing Now the old king's there, long with the king
01:11The minute I held the key Next the walls were closed on me
01:18And I discovered that my castle stand Upon pillars of salt, pillars of sand
01:26I hear Jerusalem boughs are ringing Roman cavalry cries are singing
01:33Be my hero, my sword and shield My missionaries in a fallen field
01:40For some reason I can't explain She'd gone, there was never, never run on
01:48This world that was when I ruled the world
02:06It was a wicked and wild wind Blew down the doors to let me in
02:13The shadow windows and the sound of drums People couldn't believe what I've become
02:22Revolutionary sway
02:24I hold my hand on a certain plate I'm just a puppet on a lonely string
02:31Oh, who would ever want to be king Oh, who would ever want to be king
02:35Now I hear Jerusalem boughs are ringing
02:39The Roman cavalry crowds are singing
02:42Be my hero, my sword and shield My missionaries in a fallen field
02:49For some reason I can't explain
02:52I know St. Peter would call my name
02:56Never run on this road That was when I ruled the world
