There are no barbarians any longer,
Extinction found them long ago,
Their villages are now ruin and rubble,
They died arm in arm, friend and foe.

There are no barbarians any longer,
We could not let them go on,
They had pagan religions and rituals,
We disagreed; we believed that they were wrong.

There are no barbarians any longer,
Our dogs hunted them all down,
They wore tribal robes and rags,
They were primitive, their king wore no crown.

There are no barbarians any longer,
Our knights killed every last child,
They didn’t have our regulations or rules,
We’re responsible; we couldn’t let them run wild.

There are no barbarians any longer,
We did what we thought was right,
But now I look around my civilised city,
Barbarians are the only sight.
