Empire!

Romein’, Romein’, Romein’,
Provincial taxes swollen,
Turn them Britons Roman,
Empire!

Through war and mental Caesars,
Northward expansion freezes,
From Hadrian's wall unto the Rhine.

Romein’, Romein’, Romein’,
The Latin League has grown,
Keep the taxes flowing,
Empire!

Control of populations,
Depends on integration
And instilling Roman values far and wide!

Tax the plebs, build a road, tax the Jews, build a road, tax the Gauls, build a road, Empire!

Build a road, tax the North, build a wall, tax the West, tax the East build an aqueduct, Empire!

Romein’, Romein’, Romein’,
The plebians are owing,
The Tiber still is flowing,
Empire!

The Gallo-Roman fabric,
woven from ancient habit,
of looking down on barbaric hill fort tribes!
Rome gave administration,
To those who had no nation,
As cultural acclimatisation would there thrive! 

Tax the plebs, build a road, tax the Jews, build a road, tax the Gauls, build a road, Empire! 

Build a road, tax the North, build a wall, tax the West, tax the East, build an aquaduct Empire! 

Romein Romein Romein
The Picts and Dacians Foamin
The entrails tell an omen of
Empire

From seven hills a tribe sprang
And from their voice the words rang
iacta alea est , The die is cast. 

Caledonia to Iberia, Africa to Judea
The Eagle spread its wings over the world

Tax the plebs, build a road, tax the Jews, build a road, tax the Gauls, build a road, Empire! 

Build a road, tax the North, build a wall, tax the West, tax the East, build an aqueduct, Empire! 
Kill a celt, kill a jew, kill a greek, kill a slav, Juno's cunt, Ju-pit-er's cock. EMPIRE!

Empire!
