Lyrics
[Verse 1: Chris Martin]
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
[Verse 2: Chris Martin]
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: Chris Martin]
I hear Jerusalem bells are 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 3: Chris Martin]
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: Chris Martin]
I hear Jerusalem bells are 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
[Bridge: Will, Jonny, Guy, Brian]
Oh-oh-woah, oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh-woah, oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh-woah, oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh-woah, oh-oh, oh
[Breakdown: Chris Martin & Will, Jonny, Guy & Brian]
(Oh-oh-woah, oh-oh, oh) I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
(Oh-oh-woah, oh-oh, oh) Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
(Oh-oh-woah, oh-oh, oh) Be my mirror, my sword and shield
(Oh-oh-woah, oh-oh, oh) My missionaries in a foreign field
(Oh-oh-woah, oh-oh, oh) For some reason I can’t explain
(Oh-oh-woah, oh-oh, oh) I know Saint Peter won’t call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
[Outro]
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm…

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
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin'
Roman Cavalry choirs are singin'
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
It was a 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?
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin'
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
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh Oh
-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin'
Roman Cavalry choirs are singin'
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
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
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin'

Goodbye 2023 😢🕊😭
I used to rule Ukraine.
People rise when I gave the word.
Now in the morning I sleep alone,
sleep in the trains I used to bomb.
I used to roll the ice,
stop the flight of my mobilized guys.
Listen as the crowd went wild,
who cares if I raped a child?
Two days I held the Kiev,
next the walls closed on me and
I discovered that my troops had fled.
Why didn't they want to be dead?
I do hear that the Hague is calling,
Abrams cavalry choirs are singing
"Slava Ukraine, heroiam slava"
"end his missions in a foreign field",
also a reason I can't accept.
When I talked to NATO it was never, never an honest word.
That was when they ruled the world.
It was the wicked and wile HIMARS
blew up my depots and stopped the march,
the shattered windows and the sound of drums.
People couldn't believe what I had become,
21st century Hitler!
They want my head on a silver plate,
NATO and their evil ways,
oh, I will make sure to end their days...
I do hear that the Hague is calling,
Abrams cavalry choirs are singing
"Slava Ukraine, heroiam slava"
"end his missions in a foreign field",
also a reason I can't accept.
I know St. Peter will hold their ground,
against NATO, never an honest word.
That is how I rule the world. x2
As I walk down this lonely street
I can't help but i feel incomplete
My heart is heavy, my mind is weak
But I know that I'll find I seek
Verse 2:
I've been searching this far and wide
For someone be by my side
But every time I think I've found
The one who'll turn my life around
I feel that is hard to find
But I am Condident that I won't give up,
I'll keep searching till the end of time
Until I find the one who's mine
I know that I can't do this alone
i need someone to help me find my
home
To guide me through the darkest night
And show me that everything will be alright
Outro:
Im convinced that I'll keep searching,I believe
that someday I'll win
And when I find the one who's right
The best is I'll hold on tight with all my might.
INRODUCTORY WORDS
•I BELIEVE
•I AM CONFIDENT THAT
•I THINK
•I FEEL
