Horrible Histories
I Can’t Go On
[Cleopatra (Drysdale)]
Defeated by Octavian
That weed we don't respect
Our faction killed in Actium
As my poor Ant has been decked

[Mark Antony]
Yeah, I was wrecked

[Cleopatra]
Now it's T-H-E-E-N-D
I'm sure that spells the end for me
Octavian will display me
In a cage, the world will gloat

I can't go on
Won't be paraded round the street
Octavian
Not your exotic parakeet
Not your spoils from victory
I'll spoil your party
I can't go on

[Antony]
I'm miserable, I'm so depressed
How did it come to this
Octavian don't like me
Cause I dumped his plain old sis
For Queen Isis
[Cleopatra]
I'm trying to sustain our rule
Don't hold me up to ridicule
Snap out of this, you moping fool
You're not helping at all

[Antony]
I can't go on
Without my sweet Roman romance
My love has gone
Living alone not in my plans
Octavian my boss?
I'd sooner eat my hair
I can't go on

[Octavian (Osmanoglu)]
I must try and capture Cleo

[Cleopatra]
Octavian must not take me-o

[Antony]
She'll kill herself just for me?
She must adore me

[Cleopatra]
I'll foil Octavian with this plot
[Antony]
She's dead?

[Cleopatra]
Not yet, I'm not

[Octavian]
She must not die
So much more popular than me

[Cleopatra]
And so I die

[Octavian]
This will look bad on my CV
Antony and Cleo gone
What a blooming pair of drama queens
So all hail me
