Shall Rome stand in awe Be lost before the law Beneath a man who on his own can barely stand? Shall Rome be weak With feeble frail physique With dainty Caesar and that wife at first command? I am a typical man, but I cannot deny That many Romans seem to feel the same way Wake up, Brutus, shall Rome die in sleep? Brutus, you must think of us In you our faith is placed Shall Rome be trashed With litter used to light the fire That keeps someone like Caesar fuelled to lead? Shall Rome be enchained Afraid to use our brains Sheep in danger of a wolf about to feed? I am a typical man, who am I to stand by While my friends are fooled by Caesar's old show? Wake up, Brutus, we're taking a blow Brutus, look inside you Find that you already know And in addition I'll go on if you give me permission How does someone so delicate, dim-witted and lackadaisical Land his position? With no opposition His ego's inflated Admit it, he's so overrated Our great republic is lame because of him Honestly Brutus I hate it Give it a shot I hate how he dresses (yes!) He goes on about all his successes He's excessive, yet unimpressive He'll go on forever unless What do you suggest? Uh, assassination? You passed my test Give us a summation Brutus, your participation is key Bring honour to Rome, bring honour to me Caesar's a threat, a fool could see As long as he lives, I'll never be free Bring back the old republic The Rome I fell in love with Join us, the hour draws nearer (yeah) Tyranny dies with Caesar Bring back the old republic (bring it back, bring it back) The Rome I fell in love with Join us, the hour draws nearer Tyranny dies with Caesar (a little louder, it dies) Bring back the old republic (it dies, it dies) The Rome I fell in love with (it dies, it dies) Join us, the hour draws nearer Tyranny dies with Caesar (dies, it dies, it dies) It dies with Caesar Dies with Caesar It dies, it dies Shall Rome become an empire? Is that what you desire, Brutus? Listening to freedom's final ring Shall Rome crash and burn? I'd rather have more civil war Than witness Caesar claiming he's a king I am a typical man (what makes us different?) And there are plentiful more (what makes me so different?) We wonder how is his name greater than mine? Wake up Brutus, the die has been cast Caesar can't be king for life Sharpen up and bring your knife And make this day his last
