La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.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 will sing, now the old king is there, lonely the king.One minute I held the key, next the world's word closed on me.And discovered that my castle stands, up from pillars of sand, pillars of sand.I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing, Roman cavalry choirs are singing.Be my name.Be my mirror, my sword, my shield, my missionaries in a foreign field.For some reason I can't explain, once you'd know there was never, never an honest word.That was when I ruled the world.I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing, Roman cavalry choirs are singing.Be my mirror, my sword, my shield.My missionaries in a foreign field.For some reason I can't explain, once you'd know there was never, never an honest word.That was when I ruled the world.I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing, Roman cavalry choirs are singing.That was when I ruled the world.That was when I ruled the worldI hear Jerusalem bells are ringingGracias a la vidaQue me ha dado tantoMe dio dos lucerosQue cuando los abroPerfecto distingoLo negro del blancoThe black of whiteY en el alto cielo su fondo estrelladoY en las multitudes el hombre que amoGracias a la vida que me ha dado tantoMe ha dado la risa y me ha dado el llantoAsí yo distingo, dicha de quebrantoLos dos materiales que forman mi cantoY el canto de ustedes que es mi propioAménY el canto de ustedes que es mi propio cantoI want to buy the world a homeAnd furnish it with loveGrow apple trees and honeybeesAnd snow with turquoiseAnd little dogsI'd like to teach the world to singPerfect harmonyI'd like to buy the world a homeAnd keep in companyThat's the real thingI'd like to teach the world to singPerfect harmonyI'd like to buy the world a homeAnd keep in companyThat's the real thingThat's the real thingThat's the real thingWhen the night has comeWhen the night has comeAnd the land is darkAnd the moon is the only light we'll seeI won't cryI won't cryNo, I won't shed a tearJust as long as you stand, stand by meSo darling, darling stand by meOh, stand by meOh, stand, stand by meStand by meBaby, you're a fireworkCome and show them what you're worthMake them go oh, oh, ohAs you shoot across the skyBaby, you're a fireworkCome and light your colorburstMake them go oh, oh, ohYou're gonna leave them all in oh, oh, ohBaby, you're a fireworkCome and light your colorburstMake them go oh, oh, ohYou're gonna leave them all in oh, oh, ohYou're gonna leave them all in oh, oh, ohYou're gonna leave them all in oh, oh, ohBaby, you're a firework
