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 enemie'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 the my castles stand Upon pillars of salt and pillars of stand 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 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's I'd become Revolutionaries wait For my head on a silver plate Just a puppet on a lonely string Oh who would ever want to be king? I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing Roman Cavaly 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 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 I know Saint Peter won't call my name Never an honest word But that was when I ruled the world |

If sweet Death should ever conquer me
Let me know, boys, let me know If you hear him coming, won't you let me flee? Let me go, boys, let me go One day Death is going to conquer me I'll be down where the waters flow I hope sweet Heaven has a place for me Let me know, boys, let me know If sweet Death should ever conquer me Take me down to some place below If you hear him coming, won't you set me free? Let me go, boys, let me go If you hear him coming, won't you say for me That I just don't want to go |
