Welcome to Rome, my dear friend I hope you have a wonderful time For here is the best place to spend Vacations and holidays that is so sublime As it is the first time for you here I’ll to take you to the most exciting place I don’t know if you did know about it or hear But people come to visit it of every race I’m going to take you to the Colosseo I’m sure you’ll have a great time, my friend, Leo! I’m not going to take you to just an another monument It’s very unique! And it will give you joy and amusement There you can see strong wrestlers and gladiators And animals of every kind, from lions to alligators! There you can witness battles between humans and predators Which attract from all over the world spectators and visitors At the Colosseo, you can watch Christians and slaves…. Are being executed By axes of gladiators and fangs of lions, No other punishment would have more suited! It is also used for punishing criminals By throwing them to be fed on by wild animals! When they’re pushed into the field….. They beg and cry for help But instead of crying they should’ve thought….. About the peace they did disturb! And who anyway can restrain justice or curb?! (Plus it is a very exciting show And gives a lesson about morals, you know!) And sometimes attends the emperor of Rome That by a turn of his hand gives life or doom But also the audience gets to decide And the emperor is often on its side Do you see how passionate our people are…. And how just our emperor is! Oh! Leo, are you alright? Why is your face….. Turning yellow like this?! Oh, you need to throw up! It’s okay; it must be that beer cup!!
