[Verse 1]
I wish I was king of the world
I'd give you everything, diamonds and pearls
Yeah, I'd give you all that I had
Yeah, I'd give you all I had
[Chorus]
Yeah, when I'm king of the world
Yeah, when I'm king of the world
[Verse 2]
What I was still drags me down
Those dreadful days and nights still haunt me now
Less said about the way we were
More the chance I could be your shelter
[Chorus]
Yeah, when I'm king of the world
Yeah, when I'm king of the world
[Instrumental bridge]
[Verse 3]
Yeah, when I'm king of the world
Yeah, there'll be no more pain
[Chorus]
No sorrow when I'm king of the world
No sorrow when I'm king of the world
[Outro]
No sorrow, no sorrow
No sorrow, no sorrow
No sorrow, no sorrow
When I'm king of the world
When I'm king of the world
When I'm king of the world
