Animaniacs - I Am the Very Model of an Ancient Roman Emperor
I am the very model of an ancient Roman Emperor
I overspend and overtax and overthrow my treasurer
I marry family members from my cousin to my stepsister
I’m always right, I’m never wrong, just ask this neutral senator
★ SENATOR ★
Th-That is correct
★ NERO ★
Through sound investigation by Praetorian Inquisitors
My mother and my brother were revealed to be conspirators
But mother dear’s no longer here, this bust helps me remember her
I am the very model of an ancient Roman Emperor
★ YAKKO ★
He fiddles while the city burns, he rules with fear tyrannical
★ DOT ★
He’s lazy, brutish, and ill-willed, he thinks that he’s infallible
★ WAKKO ★
His hands are small, he steals from Gaul, his writing's ungrammatical
★ THE WARNERS ★
He’s making Roma great again, dogmatic and fantastical
He’s gormless and irascible, tragic and autocratical
Maniacal and radical, positions problematical
Takes endless golf sabbaticals, his tweets are unsyntactical
★ YAKKO, Spoken ★
Um, we're still talking about Nero, right?
★ THE WARNERS ★
He’s a narcissist, a petulant, unscrupulous embezzler
He is a very model of an ancient Roman Emperor
