Long ago

Deep in a swamp far from Mexico

Lived an old psychopath, Dandolo!

Rich was he!

Stole from the Egyptian dynasty

Corpse of St Mark, Allegedly.

Ordered ships to be made

Diverted the fourth crusade, Dandolo!

Adding on to the total

Sacking Constantinople, Dandolo!

And when they ships got there

They’d come from St Mark’s Square

Byzantium beware!

You’re so fucked!

Long ago

Dealing the Romans a killer blow

Toppled the empire, did Dandolo!
