Pet Shop Boys - Viva La Vida / Domino Dancing lyrics

Your rating:



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



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



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

Watch them all fall down



Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh...
