歌词
Weezer - Viva La Vida
大千世界曾由我主宰
巨浪也曾因我之命澎湃
I used to rule the world
而今我却在黎明独自入眠
Seas would rise when I gave the word
在曾属于我的大道落寞徘徊
Now in the morning I sleep alone
凡人生死曾由我主宰
Sweep the streets I used to own
尽情品味惊恐在死敌瞳孔绽开
I used to roll the dice
欣然倾听百姓高歌喝彩：
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
“先王亡矣！新王万代！”
Listened as the crowd would sing
此刻我手握权位经脉
Now the old king is dead long live the king
转瞬才知宫墙深似海
One minute I held the key
恍然发现我的城池
Next the walls were closed on me
基底散如盐沙乱似尘埃
And I discovered that my castles stand
听那耶路撒冷钟声传来
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
罗马骑兵歌声震彻山海
[01:09.04]I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
担当我的明镜，利剑和盾牌
[02:21.40][01:12.64]Roman cavalry choirs are singing
我的传教士屹立边疆之外
[02:24.74][01:16.15]Be my mirror, my sword and shield
只因一些缘由我无法释怀
Missionaries in a foreign field
一旦你离开这里便不再
[02:31.68][01:23.01]For some reason I can't explain
不再有逆耳忠言存在
Once you'd gone there was never
而这便是我统治的时代
[02:38.28][01:29.06]Never an honest word
凛冽邪风呼啸袭来
And that was when I ruled the world
吹散重门使我深陷阴霾
It was a wicked and wild wind
断壁残垣礼崩乐坏
Blew down the doors to let me in
世人不敢相信我已当年不再
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
起义大军翘首期待
People couldn't believe what I'd become
有朝一日我站上断头台
Revolutionaries wait
恰如傀儡随吊线寂寞摇摆
For my head on a silver plate
悲哉，谁又曾渴望万人膜拜？
Just a puppet on a lonely string
听那耶路撒冷钟声传来
Oh who would ever want to be king?
罗马骑兵歌声震彻山海
[02:28.06]My missionaries in a foreign field
担当我的明镜，利剑和盾牌
[02:34.93]I know St Peter won't call my name
我的传教士屹立边疆之外
[02:41.42]But that was when I ruled the world
只因一些缘由我无法释怀
Hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
我亦知天堂之门不会为我敞开
