lyrics

I've often thought this time of life was a special one, somehow;
I'm four-and-a-half in decades-old, with wisdom so endowed;
To Horace and Livy, I have been privy; through Ovid, I did plow;
For recently I was XLIV, but I'm XLV now

I used to read works by Mann and Goethe, Schopenhauer and Nietzsche;
But now I've found my calling, and it's Veni, Vidi, Vici!

Suetonius in my toga, Virgil back at my domus abode;
Its atrium and vestibulum on the Appian Way road;
Take orders from Julius Caesar, not from Hammurabi's Code, and

If I were an ancient Roman, I'd be XLV years old, yes!
If I were an ancient Roman, I'd be XLV years old, hey!
