Now this is a story all about how Napoleon's life got flipped turned upside down
And we?d like to take two minutes for this song and dance
We?ll tell you how he became the emperor of a town called France

Western Corsica Napoleon was born and raised
In military school he spent most of his days

At the age of sixteen, a lieutenant machine
He wasn?t he plain? so he joined the new government regime

Then in 1795 he was the hero of the hour
Defending the National Convention against royalist power
