Bonaparte - (Original) ©2010 Junkyard Academy by Lewis Nowosad

Description
This song is about Napoleon Bonaparte. Who sings about this dude, really? I chose to go a little personal with it and illustrate how the man must have felt having been exiled to Elba. I make a reference to his 'useless golden hand' in the bridge - here's the rest of the story... I originally was making reference to a movie called Time Bandits, but upon doing research, the Golden Hand was one of the elements on the coronation shield. Who knew?
Lyrics
VERSE 1 Bonaparte was feeling lonely Day and night he wore a frown Fighting battles in which he knew he'd Be letting all his people down CHORUS He can't make everyone happy It's his lot in life to loose He didn't even like his first name Napoleon has got the blues Napoleon has got the blues VERSE 2 Missing the smells of his homeland And the breeze upon his face He didn't want to be a soldier Exiled from the human race CHORUS He can't make everyone happy It's his lot in life to loose He didn't even like his first name Napoleon has got the blues Napoleon is... BRIDGE Cursing life on Elba With his useless golden hand He's got an unnamed complex AAAHHHH! CHORUS He can't make everyone happy It's his lot in life to loose He didn't even like his first name Napoleon has got the blues Napoleon has got the blues OUTRO Napoleon, Napoleon, Napoleon, Napoleon Napoleon, Napoleon, Napoleon, Napoleon
