Waterloo Lyrics

Lyric discussion by KennyTheValiant 

Cover art for Waterloo lyrics by Iced Earth

Here's a history lesson for all of you: Napoleon was imprisoned in the island of Elba, he escaped, new king abdicated, Napoleon takes French army, attacks British near the town of Waterloo, attempted to break through and take Brussels (now part of Belgium) before all the "Allied" armies combined but the Prussians overwhelmed the French because one of Napoleon's major generals was relaxing at a local inn and mistook artillery fire for thunder and failed to attack and because German chocolate is better than French chocolate. Really I had some once it was terrible. Anyway, that's all you need to know about "Waterloo"
