Savage before they arrived

Said we worshipped our gods

By burning our convicts alive

Then Caesar invaded

Not one time, but two

Finally, Emperor Claudius

Sent over a crew

Who took over our isle

And decided to stay quite a while

But I say thank you to the Romans

They brought us olives

Central heating, cats and cabbage

Can we live without them?

They've been here 400 years

Gave us gods to fear

Taught us to read, write

And number our years

So I say thank you to the Romans

For coming over here

We lived in small settlements

We were all fierce warring tribes

Now our cities have roads and sewers

To make them smell nice

They taught us their Latin

They brought heated baths

Watching men fighting lions

Is always a laugh

Chester to Londinium

Finally, our country's all one
