Usher in the rally cries

Revolution's here again

The emperor's bond's are broken

And free he shall remain



Escape, though narrow, Was demand

While his reign remained in view

This fight for France, Till bitter end

He must see it Through



Coalition forms of many lands

Against Napoleon, West to East

Dogs of war will take to arms

And soon will be unleashed



Prussian, Russian, Austrian

All follow British lead

At allies' helm is Wellington

Who must make his Foe concede



Chorus

Foreshadowed man of destiny

Soon you will be force to see

Nations aligning against you

Marking the time your reign is through

...And you will see your hundred days

Come to an end

Foreshadowed man of destiny

Soon you will be forced to see

Nations aligning against you

Marking the time your reign is through

...It lies before you, fate shall befall you



Quickly, the allies gather force

Near the Franco-Belgian line

While 124,000 French

March there in double time



As the battle begins

Napoleon springs his audacious plan

He'll attack them on two fronts

Splitting up his warring Band



As the Prussians sound retreat

Behind they leave 12,000 slain

Most of their force is still in tact

And will live to fight again



Wellington, Who felt the loss of 5,000 men

Would feel more under cannon fire

Bombardment from the French



Repeat Chorus



Bridge

Of all the wars I have waged

To propel my nations might

For this I'll be remembered

From now 'till the end of time

If to the victor go the spoils

I may die an impoverished man -
