Through the Ages (Outro) Lyrics


From the Roman conquest of Britain

In the year 43 AD to 61 AD

To the Saxon raids between 205 and 577 AD

Followed by Viking raids, 793 to around 1016

The Norman conquest of 1066

Including the Battle of Hastings

Leading to the crusades, which persisted

Throughout the 11th, 12th and 13th centuries

The Anglo-French Wars of the 12th, 13th and 14th centuries

Culminating in the Massacre of Agincourt

The first English civil war of 1215 to 1217

The first of many

The Hundred Years' War from 1337 to 1457

The War of the Roses from 1455 to 1485

The War of the Holy League from 1510 to 1514

Another war created in the name of god

The Eighty Years' War of 1568 to 1648

Followed by the great English Civil War of 1642 to 1651

The American Revolution of 1792 lasting through to 1802

Followed by the Napoleonic Wars of 1803 to 1815

Ending in the Battle of Waterloo

The wars on both the Zulus and Boers through around 1879 to 1902

World War I

1914 to 1918

The so-called 'War of All Wars'

The Great War

Millions slaughtered in the mud of France

World War II

1939 to 1945

The war that should never have happened

A prime example of man's inhumanity

Concluding in the bombing of Japan

Vietnam from 1956 to 1975

The war that America will never forget

More recently, the Falklands War in 1982

The Gulf War of 1991

Mankind's destructive nature

Throughout the ages
