Coldplay "Viva La Vida" Lyrics:

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

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, pillars of sand

Hear Jerusalem bells a' 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 know there was never, never an honest word
Well that was when I ruled the world

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in.
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People could not 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' ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
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

RAP:
It was a poisonous time to mix poison with wine
And a serpent that slept inside a poisonous mind
And I only really cared about the noblest class
The other lower forms of life I only cared about tax
And I supported a war raging across the sea
That I never really thought could back fire on me
Because I showed the other people to be free from their king
Yet I showed my own people they could do the same thing
It was the longest regime ended with guillotine
And now my head's in a basket I can hear them all sing
He thought he fooled the world when he ruled the world
But if you fool the world you never rule it

Hear Jerusalem bells a' 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
Know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

Coldplay is still incredible. But this cover is flawless. Love what Dirty Heads did with this song. Very talented bunch of gents.

[Macbeth Hurley]

Coldplay and Dirty Heads are different genres. So we can't compare it. If they play the song in their own genre we should respect them. This is music. We have our own style!

[MatanuskaHIGH]

[MatanuskaHIGH]

rome's "whatever you like" is a good cover also..and amanda stanksy does a lady gaga cover "just dance" if you havent already heard them

[CharlieFastHorseHD]

Cool.

Looks like your spelling is as bad as your taste in music; assuming you mean "Reggae" and not re-age....? Maybe you're just musically and linguistically challenged.

[maxmama209]

FYI some of the best versions of great songs are not done by the original artist. For example, Willie Nelson's "Crazy" was made famous by Patsy Cline even though Willie not only wrote the song but had been performing it before she blew it up. You probably love a lot of songs that you don't even know are covers. This version of this song is one of the best covers I have ever heard....ever.... Except, of course, for Janis Joplin's cover of Kris Kristopherson's "Me and My Bobby McGee." Classic!

im not a fan of coldplay, but they have my respect cuz they are great at what they do. im just simply not a fan of them. this song was okay to start with, but the dirty heads just made me fall in love with it.

[TheTylerHeckman]
