Coldplay - Viva La Vida

- The lyrics of the Coldplay’s 2008 smash hit 'Viva La Vida' is said to be modelled on the 'French Revolution' with the video scenes in music video taken from the hugely successful 1989 French film ‘The French Revolution..... thanks to ‘Music Team’. Coldplay - Viva La Vida – Lyrics It was a wicked and wild wind Blew down the doors to let me in Shattered windows and the sound of drums People couldn't believe what I'd become Revolutionaries wait For my head on a silver plate Just a puppet on a lonely string Aw, who would ever wanna be king? I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin' 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 I know Saint Peter won't call my name Never an honest word But that was when I ruled the world
