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