lyrics

Ah
Even though his end was sad
Look at all that Caesar had
He must of known how to live
When to fight on and when to just leave
To victory his troops he led
And everywhere he’d go people would
Stand up and applaud
Stand up and applaud
But he didn’t let it go to his head
He valued real skill instead
Of boastin’ nobility
Virtue above of life if need be
When Med-Sea pirates kidnapped him
He joked around and said to them
“Raise the ransom”
“Raise the ransom”

And as his power racked up
He pleased the many on the bottom
Which scared the few rich on top
So they conspired to stab him
60 of them with daggers in hand
Includin’ his best friend
Yeah that was Caesar’s sad end

But his name lives on and on
It started out a common one
But ended up the highest title
For centuries to come

So what’s the point I’m tryin’ to prove
With a moral I should close
Well I don’t know what to say
Still got my own conquerin’ to rein
And I shouldn’t be worryin’
’Bout exactly how, where, and when
It will all tie in
It will all tie in
Ah-ah...
