Viva La Vida

I used to rule the world

  • I used to rule the world
  • Seas would rise when I gave the word
  • Now in the morning I sleep alone
  • Sweep the streets I used to own
  • I used to roll the dice
  • Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
  • Listen as the crowd would sing
  • Nowthe old king is dead
  • Long live the king
  • One minute I held the key
  • Next the walls were closed on me
  • And I discovered that my castles stand
  • Upon pillars of salt' and pillars of sand
  • I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
  • Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
  • Be my mirror my sword and shield
  • My missionaries in a foreign field
  • For some reason I can't explain
  • Once you go there was never
  • Never an honest word
  • But that was when I ruled the world
  • It was the wicked and wild wind
  • Blew down the doors to let me in
  • Shattered windows and the sound of drums
  • People couldn't believe what I'd become
  • Revolutionaries wait
  • For my head on a silver plate
  • Just a puppet on a lonely string
  • Oh who would ever want tobe king
  • I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
  • Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
  • Be my mirror my sword and shield
  • My missionaries in a foreign field
  • For some reason I can't explain
  • I know Saint Peter won't call my name
  • Never an honest word
  • But that was when I ruled the world
  • Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh
  • Ohhhhh Ohhh
  • Hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
  • Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
  • Be my mirror my sword and shield
  • My missionaries in a foreign field
  • For some reason I can't explain
  • I know Saint Peter won't call my name
  • Never an honest word
  • But that was when I ruled the world
