[00:35.38]Usher in the rally cries
[00:38.26]Revolution's here again
[00:41.90]The emperor's bonds are broken
[00:44.28]And free he shall remain
[00:47.00]Escape though narrow, was demand
[00:49.99]While his reign remained in view
[00:52.57]This fight for France, till bitter end
[00:55.88]He must see it through
[00:58.92]Coalition forms of many lands
[01:01.98]Against Napoleon, west to east
[01:04.75]Dogs of war will take to arms
[01:07.93]And soon will be unleashed
[01:10.78]Prussian, Russian and Austrian
[01:13.57]All follow British lead
[01:16.82]At allies' helm is Wellington
[01:19.49]Who must make his Foe concede
[01:22.14]Foreshadowed man of destiny
[01:26.38]Soon you will be force to see
[01:29.02]Nations aligning against you
[01:31.72]Marking the time your reign is through
[01:34.26]And you will see your hundred days come to an end
[01:40.43]Foreshadowed man of destiny
[01:43.39]Soon you will be forced to see
[01:46.99]Nations aligning against you
[01:49.45]Marking the time your reign is through
[01:51.94]It lies before you, fate shall befall you
[01:58.39]Quickly, the allies gather force
[02:01.06]Near the Franco-Belgian line
[02:03.79]While 124,000 French
[02:07.22]March there in double time
[02:10.01]As the battle begins
[02:11.70]Napoleon springs his audacious plan
[02:15.81]He'll attack them on two fronts
[02:18.97]Splitting up his warring Band
[02:21.67]As the Prussians sound retreat
[02:23.94]Behind they leave 12,000 slain
[02:28.33]Most of their force is still in tact
[02:30.79]And will live to fight again
[02:33.78]Wellington
[02:35.27]Who felt the loss of 5,000 men
[02:39.59]Would feel more under cannon fire bombardment from the French
[02:45.62]Foreshadowed man of destiny
[02:48.81]Soon you will be force to see
[02:51.75]Nations aligning against you
[02:54.61]Marking the time your reign is through
[02:57.47]And you will see your hundred days come to an end
[03:03.36]Foreshadowed man of destiny
[03:06.89]Soon you will be forced to see
[03:09.54]Nations aligning against you
[03:12.44]Marking the time your reign is through
[03:15.03]It lies before you, fate shall befall you
[03:38.95]Of all the wars I have waged
[03:41.96]To propel my nations might
[03:44.51]For this I'll be remembered
[03:47.72]From now 'till the end of time
[03:50.91]If to the victor go the spoils
[03:53.46]I may die an impoverished man
[03:56.41]For in the end, irony
[03:59.79]Has dealt the cruelest hand
[04:02.51]The French Force was swift and sure
[04:05.35]But their attack would be repelled
[04:08.33]And though their center battered
[04:11.30]The Anglo-Dutch line would be held
[04:14.54]As fate or skill would have it
[04:17.35]An army moves in from the east
[04:20.52]The Prussians who slipped out of his hands
[04:23.38]Would soon spell his defeat
[04:26.15]The French lines now are broken
[04:29.03]And being open to attack
[04:32.44]The Emperor has no choice
[04:34.94]And the Old Guard pulls him back
[04:38.20]There were 45,000 wounded or dead
[04:41.08]When the fight was finally through
[04:44.16]On a three square mile battlefield
[04:47.22]At a town named Waterloo
[04:49.98]Foreshadowed man of destiny
[04:53.23]Soon you will be force to see
[04:56.35]Nations aligning against you
[04:59.10]Marking the time your reign is through
[05:01.97]And you will see your hundred days come to an end
[05:08.08]Foreshadowed man of destiny
[05:11.04]Soon you will be forced to see
[05:14.16]Nations aligning against you
[05:16.90]Marking the time your reign is through
[05:19.30]It lies before you, fate shall befall you
