Today We Rise

Lyrics

[Sid] I say we storm the castle and take back what's rightfully ours. Who's with me?! [Peasants of Valencia] Yeah! [Sid + Peasants of Valencia] We will march and we'll fight For the cause of good and right [Sid] Though the odds of us surviving Are ridiculously slight [Sid + Peasants of Valencia] And we'll stand proud and tall [Sid] 'Till they come to kill us all Then we'll beg and plead and soil ourselves As one by one we fall Some they'll slash, some they'll hack Some they'll bludgeon blue and black Some they'll gut from top to bottom Some they'll mangle front to back And we'll all realize As they're gouging out our eyes That tomorrow we'll regret it But today we rise! And our corpses will rot on the plain Leaving only a gross, bloody stain Then the world, it will see As will all of history [Sid + Peasants of Valencia] We had truth on our side [Sid] But we still died in vain And the brave and lucky few Who will somehow make it through Scarred for life and missing limbs And needing help to pee and poo They can stand 'neath these skies Begging change from passerbys Is it hopeless, yep you said it We might as well forget it Tomorrow we'll regret it But today we rise! Oh my God, will we regret it But today we rise! Not so tough now are you. We're going to tear this castle down! Right everybody! I said right everybody! Tell me, why do musicals always get me so worked up?
