I used to rule the world I used to rule the world Hey, vai devagar Seas would rise when I gave the word Seas would rise when I gave the word Los mares se alzaban cuando yo lo ordenaba Now in the morning I sleep alone Now in the morning I sleep alone Ahora en la mañana yo barro solo Sweep the streets I used to own Sweep the streets I used to own barro las calles que solía poseer I used to roll the dice I used to roll the dice Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes Yo solía tirar el dado Listened as the crowd would sing Listened as the crowd would sing Sentir el miedo en los ojos de mi enemigo Now the old king is dead! Long live the king! Now the old king is dead! Long live the king! Escuchaba como la gente cantaba: One minute I held the key One minute I held the key "Ahora el viejo rey está muerto, ¡larga vida al rey!" Next the walls were closed on me Next the walls were closed on me Un minuto yo tenía la llave And I discovered that my castles stand And I discovered that my castles stand Al siguiente las paredes se cerraban en mí Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand Y descubrí que mis castillos estaban construidos I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing Sobre pilares de sal y pilares de arena Roman Cavalry choirs are singing Roman Cavalry choirs are singing Be my mirror, my sword and shield Be my mirror, my sword and shield Escucho las campanas de Jerusalen sonando My missionaries in a foreign field My missionaries in a foreign field Los coros del Calvario Romano están cantando For some reason I can't explain For some reason I can't explain Son mi espejo, mi espada y mi escudo Once you'd gone there was never Once you'd gone there was never Mis misioneros en un campo extranjero Never an honest word Never an honest word Por alguna razon que no puedo explicar That was when I ruled the world That was when I ruled the world Una vez que sabes que nunca It was the wicked and wild wind It was the wicked and wild wind Nunca hubo una palabra honesta Blew down the doors to let me in Blew down the doors to let me in Así era cuando yo gobernaba el mundo Shattered windows and the sound of drums Shattered windows and the sound of drums People couldn't believe what I'd become People couldn't believe what I'd become Fue el viento loco y salvaje Revolutionaries wait Revolutionaries wait Que tiró las puertas para dejarme entrar For my head on a silver plate For my head on a silver plate Ventanas rotas y el sonido de tambores Just a puppet on a lonely string Just a puppet on a lonely string La gente no podía creer en lo que me convertí Oh who would ever want to be king? Oh who would ever want to be king? Los revolucionarios esperan I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing Mi cabeza en charola de plata Roman Cavalry choirs are singing Roman Cavalry choirs are singing Solo una marioneta en una cuerda solitaria Be my mirror, my sword and shield Be my mirror, my sword and shield Oh ¿Quien podría querer ser rey? My missionaries in a foreign field My missionaries in a foreign field For some reason I can't explain For some reason I can't explain Escucho las campanas de Jerusalen sonando I know Saint Peter won't call my name I know Saint Peter won't call my name Los coros del Calvario Romano están cantando Never an honest word Never an honest word Son mi espejo, mi espada y mi escudo But that was when I ruled the world But that was when I ruled the world Mis misioneros en un campo extranjero Hear Jerusalem bells are ringing Hear Jerusalem bells are ringing Por alguna razon que no puedo explicar Roman Cavalry choirs are singing Roman Cavalry choirs are singing Yo se que San Pedro no dirá mi nombre Be my mirror, my sword and shield Be my mirror, my sword and shield Nunca hubo una palabra honesta My missionaries in a foreign field My missionaries in a foreign field Pero así era cuando yo gobernaba el mundo For some reason I can't explain For some reason I can't explain I know Saint Peter won't call my name I know Saint Peter won't call my name (Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh) Never an honest word Never an honest word But that was when I ruled the world But that was when I ruled the world Escucho las campanas de Jerusalen sonando
