Viva La Vida domino Dancing - Pet Shop Boys

Watch them all fall down

Watch them all fall down

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

Watch them all fall down

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

Now 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

I know St Peter won't call my name

Never an honest word

And that was when I ruled the world

Watch them all fall down

It was a wicked and wild wind

Blew 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 singin'

Be my mirror my sword and shield

My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain

I know St Peter won't call my name

Never an honest word

But that was when I ruled the world

Watch them all fall down

Oh oh oh oh oh
