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 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
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
[Chorus 1]
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'd gone there was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world
[Verse 2]
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 to be king?
[Chorus 2]
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
[Outro]
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
Ujutro spavam sama
Pomesti ulicama sam koristio za vlastiti
Ja se bacite kockice, osjećaju strah u moj neprijatelj očima
Poslušajte kako je publika će pjevati
Sada je stari kralj je mrtav, Živio kralj
U jednom trenutku sam je ključ
Sljedeća zidovima su bile zatvorene na mene
I otkrio sam da su moji dvorci stoje
Na stupove soli i stupovima pijeska
[Hor 1.]
Čujem Jeruzalem zvona a-zvoni
Rimska konjica zborovi pjevaju
Budi moj ogledalo, moj mač i štit
Moji misionari u stranom polju
Iz nekog razloga ne mogu objasniti
Nakon što je otišla tamo nikada nije bio
Nikad pošten riječ
I to je bilo kad sam vladao svijetom
[Redak 2]
To je bio zli i divlji vjetar
Puhao niz vrata da me pusti unutra
Shattered prozori i zvuk bubnjeva
Ljudi nisu mogli vjerovati u ono što sam postao
revolucionari čekati
Za moju glavu na srebrnom tanjuru
Samo lutka na osamljenom nizu
O tko bi ikada htio biti kralj?
[Hor 2]
Čujem Jeruzalem zvona a-zvoni
Rimska konjica zborovi pjevaju
Budi moj ogledalo, moj mač i štit
Moji misionari u stranom polju
Iz nekog razloga ne mogu objasniti
Znam Sveti Petar neće zvati moje ime
Nikad pošten riječ
Ali to je bilo kad sam vladao svijetom
[Završnu]
Čujem Jeruzalem zvona a-zvoni
Rimska konjica zborovi pjevaju
Budi moj ogledalo, moj mač i štit
Moji misionari u stranom polju
Iz nekog razloga ne mogu objasniti
Znam Sveti Petar neće zvati moje ime
Nikad pošten riječ
Ali to je bilo kad sam vladao svijetom
