How does the slaughter taste now?
Not quite so savory O Queen.
Not one drop of mercy allowed.
Thus giving Rome all that she needs.
Rome has just what she needs.
Tortured and ruined was I.
My daughters raped by your dogs.
Where was mercy as my people died,
And why should I care for your words?
Among the wolves of great Rome,
Dogs such as Catus may feed.
Why make Colchester a tomb?
For killing of baker and smith was there need?
Rome has just what she needs.
The folk of the tribes they are strong.
Stronger your gold doth appeal.
So, I had them kill, kill all day long,
Twas then their fate had been sealed.
Through numbers are such armies formed,
They met with foes harder than steel.
At Alesia was this legion forged.
These men are all that I need.
Rome has just what she needs.
Your three great cities had died,
Your armies were scattered and fled.
What made you fight rather than fly,
Why stay and risk all instead?
To see that they pay by the sword.
For this all Britain must bleed.
Not one drop of mercy allowed,
You've given me all that I need.
Rome has just what she needs.
What matter my thoughts at this hour?
My fate is now in Rome's hands.
Shackled to show the world Rome's power.
As a lesson to all in this land.
Suetonius needs not a show
By poison or my sword's steel
Where your body lies none shall know,
You've given me all that I need.
Rome has just what she needs.
Boadicea provided the need...
Rome has just what she needs
