[00:14.070]I used to rule the world [00:17.760]Seas would rise when I gave the word [00:20.410]Now in the morning I sweep alone [00:20.630] [00:24.670]Sweep the streets I used to own [00:33.980]I used to roll the dice [00:39.440]Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes [00:41.340]Listen as the crowd would sing [00:47.020]Now the old king is dead Long live the king!"

[02:12.160]I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing [02:15.760]Roman Cavalry choirs are singing [02:19.160]Be my mirror my sword and shield [02:22.590]My missionaries in a foreign field [02:26.010]For some reason I can't explain [02:29.540]I know Saint Peter will call my name [02:32.670]Never an honest word [02:36.070]But that was when I ruled the world [02:39.930] [02:52.750](Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh) [03:07.920]I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing [03:11.320]Roman Cavalry choirs are singing [03:14.820]Be my mirror my sword and shield [03:18.170]My missionaries in a foreign field [03:21.670]For some reason I can't explain [03:25.220]I know Saint Peter will call my name [03:28.380]Never an honest word [03:31.710]But that was when I ruled the world [03:35.050] [03:35.730]Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh [03:53.450]
