The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless
Longing for some solitary company
I know i must do whats right
Sure as kilimarjaro rises like olympus
Above the serengeti
I seek to cure whats deep inside
Frightened of this thing that ive become!
I bless the rains down in africa....

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
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
