This isn't |
|
Napoleon this isn't |
|
Bonaparte this is fate |
|
This isn't |
|
Josephine she's still in the tent |
|
This isn't the |
|
Holy Mother |
|
Mary on the balcony of |
|
Judas This is |
|
Louis, Louis the sun king |
|
Louis Quatorze he was the fire king |
|
He had disgrace there was no finer prince |
|
He had this whole department structured up in |
|
Maine This is |
|
Louis, Louis the sun king |
|
He sacked the |
|
Pope who played the pawn in |
|
Venezuela |
|
In Venezuela they have lots of cocaine |
|
The cocaine drug is sending people to their magic maker |
|
But when I come home it's what |
|
I want Emperors and gender benders dictate |
|
What's going on |
|
I'm going to seek and find and spend my favourite dollar |
|
This isn't |
|
Napoleon or one of his divine illusions |
|
This isn't |
|
Napoleon this isn't fate this isn't drugs |
|
This is Louis, |
|
Louis the sun king |
|
I'm getting sick of all the history and facts |
|
I'm going to sail a boat and never coming back |
|
I'm going to trash the |
|
Pope and bury his career |
|
And sail this boat into the |
|
Southern Hemisphere |
|
You know they say the grass is always greener on the other side |
|
I know it's not true |
|
I've been there and |
|
I'm dying to get back |
|
The grease from grass is born of peace then worn away |
|
My name's |
|
Napoleon I didn't know that |
|
This isn't |
|
Napoleon (Venezuela!) |
|
And Venezuela's vacant |
|
Venezuela's peeking holding jewels up to the |
|
West They say the grass is greener on the other side |
|
I know it's not true |
|
And I've been there and |
|
I want to get back |
|
I'm getting sick of all the history and facts |
|
I'm going to sail a boat and never coming back |
|
I'm going to trash the |
|
Pope and bury his career |
|
And sail this boat into the |
|
Southern Hemisphere [May I bring you up to date? I am up to date] |
|
This isn't |
|
Napoleon this isn't fate this isn't rhyme |
|
This is a story of times that we had sight |
|
This is Louis, |
|
Louis the sun king |
|
Louis Quatorze, |
|
Louis XIV, |
|
Louis revolting |
|
He wore his faith abused his wealth in the years 1600's 14,000 men, 14,000 horses withdrew their labours |
|
And here we go into the principality of |
|
Paris We burn the palace and shoot the people with the sour faces |
|
The sour faces have got the people's innocence in their hands |
|
And this dirty, filthy palace has still got no truth |
|
We storm the palace on the 4th and 5th amendements |
|
My name's |
|
Napoleon, |
|
I didn't breed there |
|
They say the grass is greener on the other side |
|
Well, I've been there... |
