Back in 44 BC
The republic was run by Julius C
The senate was worried he'd be king
So Brutus had to do something
Calling him a tyrant
He must die for his crimes
So they met him in the senate
Stabbed him 18 times
He muttered Et tu brute
Then Caesar went down
A civil war broke out
Who'd end up with the crown
His great nephew Octavian
Is now Caesar's son
A decision that left
Mark Antony stunned
It's another civil war
They tried to settle it
Teaming up to be the
Second triumvirate
The peace couldn't last
There could only be one
Then Antony loses at
At the battle of Actium
Now Octavian ruled
Like a striding colossus
So bow if you please
He's emperor Augustus
[chorus]
He ruled an Empire
The Roman Empire
From the shores of the Rhine
To the Hills of Palestine
All hail Augustus, God of Rome
Augustus ruled the empire
For forty one years
But he had a tough time
Locking down his heirs
Agrippa, Marcellus
They dropped like flies
Lucius, Gaius
Posthumus exiled
Then Augustus was dead
Poisoned pear from his wife
Who can say? either way
Its the end of his life
With no more Julian brats
Alive To raise a fuss
The throne goes to Livia's
Grumpy son Tiberius
He ruled an Empire
The Roman Empire
From the shores of the Rhine
To the Hills of Palestine
All hail Tiberius, Emperor of Rome
Tiberius in charge
But his number one man is
A Praetorian Prefect
By the name of Sejanus
Sejanus poisons Drussus
Who doesn't recover
Now it's Sejanus who's dead
His daughter takes a lover
Tiberius was unloved
A bitter old coot
When it came to succession he'd
Give Rome a little boot
His nephew held the pillow
Til the breathing stopped
Good riddance to Tiberius
Caligula's on top
He ruled an Empire
The Roman Empire
From the shores of the Rhine
To the Hills of Palestine
All hail Caligula, Party king of Rome
Caligula was just 24
Beloved by the people
But the wealthy elite began to ask
Is this guy kind of evil?
Did he make love to his sisters
Or make a senator of his horse
Did legionaries steal sea shells
From Britain's rocky shores
So They killed Caligula
Said his brain was sick
The senate wanted to
Restore the Republic
But the praetorian guards
Weren't down with this plan
How bout this old fool
Aye, Claudius was their man
He ruled an Empire
The Roman Empire
From the shores of Rhine
To the Hills of Palestine
All hail Claudius, Puppet king of Rome
Claudius had grown up
Stuttering and weak
His family dismissed him
As a drooling geek
He had written history
Now he had a chance to make it
He saw the Britons' sceptered isle
It was time for Rome to take it
He strengthened Roman borders
His public games were a corker
He's the only emperor
To take down an Orca
But His fourth wife Agrippina
Thought her son should be the hero
She poisoned poor old Claudius
Hail emperor Nero
He ruled an Empire
The Roman Empire
From the shores of the Rhine
To the Hills of Palestine
All hail Nero, the beast of Rome
Did he make love to his sisters
Make a senator of his horse
Did legions steal sea shells
From Britain's rocky shores
So They killed Caligula
Said his brain was sick
The senate wanted to
Restore the Republic
The praetorian guards
Weren't down with this plan
How bout this old fool (Aye)
Claudius was their man
He ruled an Empire
The Roman Empire
From the shores of Rhine
To the Hills of Palestine
All hail Claudius, God of Rome
Claudius had grown up
Stuttering and weak
His family dismissed him
As a drooling geek
He had written history
Now he had a chance to make it
He saw the Britons' sceptered isle
Time for Rome to take it
He strengthened Roman borders
His public games a corker
And he's the only emperor
To execute an Orca
But His fourth wife Agrippina
Thought her son should be the hero
She poisoned poor old Claudius
All hail emperor Nero
He ruled an Empire
The Roman Empire
From the shores of Rhine
To the Hills of Palestine
All hail Nero, the Beast of Rome
Nero was an emperor like no other
He killed his wife
His Step-brother
And Agrippina his mother
Fire! Fire! Fire!
Took out a chunk of the city
If the Christians get blamed
That's such a pity
Nero couldn't last
He made too many foes
Killed by Epaphroditus
That's just the way it goes
His blood trickled into
The wine faced sea
There goes the last of the
Julio Claudian dynasty
They ruled an Empire
The Roman Empire
Augustus, Tiberius
Nero, Caligula and Claudius
The end of Julio Claudian dynasty
They ruled an Empire
The Roman Empire
From the shores of Rhine
To the Hills of Palestine
Farewell to Caesar's dynasty
