Marie Antoinette |
| Marie Antoinette, your name’s a legend in this land |
| Treasure for your pleasure, bestowed on favoured gentlemen |
| The people are in arms, marching on the town |
| They rise chanting «Revolution! |
| Viva la Nation!» |
| Marie Antoinette, your shadow’s falling along the land |
| Anger born of hunger poisons the hearts of your loyal men |
| Fire in their eyes, steel in their hands |
| They rise chanting «Revolution! |
| Viva la Nation!» |
| Clamouring in the square, the rabble have gone insane |
| They’re over the balustrades, defying the cannon fire |
| They’re into the garrison, they murder the noblemen |
| Marie Antoinette, Marie Antoinette |
| «We are the people of France we demand that the |
| Elegant blue-blooded leeches that bleed us |
| Are taught what it means to grow fat and not feed us! |
| We are the people of France, you must heed us!» |
| Already at the Bastille, the prisoners all run free |
| They’re hammering on the door, Marie Antoinette |
| They’ve taken the guillotine, they’re coming to take the Queen |
| Marie Antoinette, the King and the guards have fled |
| Marie Antoinette, your shadow’s falling along the land |
| Anger born of hunger, poisoned your men |
| They rise chanting «Revolution! |
| Viva la Nation!» |
