Roundhead I: Before the Battle / Ii: The Inevitable War / Iii: The Protectorate

Parliamentarians combine
To the North and the East
Armies align
Descendants of God
Brought into doubt
Deployed by night
Ready to joust

Hark my liege
At last surrender
A message beheld
By standard bearer

Roundhead
Roundhead

Royal touch
Deceiving the poor
Prince Rupert outmatched
At Marston Moor

Bloodthirsty public hysteria
The end of the line
For regal familiars

Cavalry charge
Coat of arms
The King has fled
Off with his head

Lay waste to the North
Reclaim East Anglia!
Reclaim East Anglia!

Ride with Cromwell
Take the Crown
Fight or die
Through the city
And the town
Hear our cry

God is pleased
To be called a Man of Warre
Standing ground in the face
Of the monarchy
Victory profound
Noble hypocrisy

War is over, battle won
Homeward bound
Burnished leather in the sun
Albion!
