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 hear Jerusalem bells a 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
- And that was when I ruled the world
- I used to roll the dice feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
- Listen as the crowd would sing
- Now the 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 a 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
- And that was when I ruled the world
