| Now this is the story all about how |
| Rome got flipped, turned upside down. |
| And I'd like to take a minute, just sit right there, |
| I'll tell you how Rome fell into despair |
| In ancient Italia, born and raised, |
| On the battlefield was where they spent most of their days. |
| Conquering, ruling, expanding all cool, |
| And all shooting some arrows outside of the school. |
| When a couple of goths who were up to no no good |
| Started making trouble in my neighborhood |
| They sacked one little town and Rome got scared, |
| They said, "We’re splitting up the empire, half here, half there." |
| The West was declining, couldn't hold on, |
| With barbarian tribes coming on strong. |
| They'd knocked out the legions, took down the gates, |
| Rome’s glory days started to deflate. |
| Attila the Hun was leading the charge, |
| His warriors were fierce, his empire large. |
| But it wasn’t just Huns, oh no, it was more, |
| Visigoths, Vandals, at Rome’s front door. |
| They tried to hold it down, but they just couldn't last, |
| The glory of Rome became a thing of the past. |
| With emperors weak and corruption so vast, |
| The fall of the empire happened so fast. |
| Eastern Rome, aka Byzantium, |
| They kept it going strong, but the West was done. |
| 476, the year it all fell, |
| When Odoacer rang the Roman Empire’s death knell. |
