Horrible Histories
The Borgia Family
[THE BORGIAS]
Lucrezia, Giovanni,
Gioffre and Cesare
Italian barmy army,
The Borgia Family
Our daddy was Rodrigo
[RODRIGO BORGIA]
I had a monstrous ego
[THE BORGIAS]
Where he makes trouble we go
The Borgia Family
[RODRIGO BORGIA]
Our tale begins Renaissance Spain,
Its leaders were a shower
And I ran out of patience
So began in my quest for power
I splashed my cash to all the papal cardinals in hope
That they’d be bought,
They were in short
And I became the Pope
More power than I oughta
[THE BORGIAS]
Blood’s thicker than water
[RODRIGO BORGIA]
Appoint my sons and daughter
[THE BORGIAS]
To run a dynasty
[CESARE BORGIA]
With daddy as the Pope I could do as I pleased, was ace
I’d kill a man who dared to
Like, invade my personal space
[RODRIGO BORGIA]
I found a husband for Lucrezia
Rich Giovanni Sforza, do you love him?
[LUCREZIA BORGIA]
Yes of course but love is power and money more so
[THE BORGIAS]
Now married to the Sforzas
This opens up new doorsas
The world bows down before us
The Borgia/Sforza family
[RODRIGO BORGIA]
Oh yes, and while we’re at it, we will marry son Gioffre
Aged twelve but so what, soon we'll be
The Borgia/Sforza and the Naples family
When the Sforza family
Eventually bores ya
We'll just annul the marriage
If he refuses to divorce ya
[LUCREZIA BORGIA]
Don’t I get a say?
[RODRIGO BORGIA]
Don’t fret, for you, another man I’ll get
Alfonzo of Aragon
[LUCREZIA BORGIA]
I like him, this could go on and on!
[CESARE BORGIA]
You like him, I’ve gone off him
His pretty face makes me wince
[LUCREZIA BORGIA]
You killed him!
[CESARE BORGIA]
Yeah I’m the model for
Machiavelli’s Prince
[RODRIGO BORGIA]
Giovanni run the army but Cesare said
[CESARE BORGIA]
"No way! I’ll kill you if you cross me
I might kill you anyway"
I am the mostest powerfulest, evilest of all
As long as dad’s alive
There’s not a single chance I’ll fall
[RODRIGO dies.]
[CESARE BORGIA]
Aw, no
[THE BORGIAS]
We suddenly lost status
It seemes the whole world hate us
They excommunicate us
The Borgia Family
