作词 : Christopher Anthony John Martin|Guy Rupert Berryman|Jonathan Mark Buckland|William Champion 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
