00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:10.679
 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Imperial Ball at Schönbrunn Palace.

1
00:00:11.220 --> 00:00:17.980
 The Emperor has arrived. His Majesty Franz Joseph and her Empress Elizabeth Sissi!

2
00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:25.480
 The chandeliers ignite with flame

3
00:00:25.480 --> 00:00:28.140
 The crowd obeys, but not the same

4
00:00:28.140 --> 00:00:30.760
 Strauss begins, the waltz divine

5
00:00:30.760 --> 00:00:33.780
 Now screams through amps in three-four time

6
00:00:33.780 --> 00:00:47.460
 The violins are burning bright

7
00:00:47.460 --> 00:00:50.100
 The nobles twist in pure delight

8
00:00:50.100 --> 00:00:52.799
 Their golden crowns begin to shake

9
00:00:52.799 --> 00:00:55.659
 As Schoenbrunn's walls begin to quake

10
00:00:55.659 --> 00:00:59.439
 Dance, dance, the empire falls

11
00:00:59.439 --> 00:01:01.600
 Let's all thunder through these halls

12
00:01:01.600 --> 00:01:03.979
 Walls of fire, the walls of doom

13
00:01:03.979 --> 00:01:07.079
 Let's run a shake in the Grand Ballroom

14
00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:12.200
 The generals scream, the duchess spins

15
00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:15.000
 The orchestra breaks their violins

16
00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:17.760
 Strauss himself just bows and grins

17
00:01:17.760 --> 00:01:20.700
 As chaos reigns, the madness wins

18
00:01:20.700 --> 00:01:23.140
 The ballroom floor begins to crack

19
00:01:23.140 --> 00:01:25.939
 No noble fear is holding back

20
00:01:25.939 --> 00:01:31.359
 The empire's ghosts join in the fray, and metal rules in sweet decay

21
00:01:31.359 --> 00:01:36.700
 Attention, the waltz continues, no mercy

22
00:01:36.700 --> 00:02:11.120
 Oh honey, the ballroom's on fire again again Dance, dance, the empire falls

23
00:02:11.120 --> 00:02:13.659
 Lots of thunder through these halls

24
00:02:13.659 --> 00:02:15.699
 Walls of fire, walls of doom

25
00:02:15.699 --> 00:02:18.500
 Let Vienna shake in the grand ballroom

26
00:02:18.500 --> 00:02:21.979
 Dance until the crowds collide

27
00:02:21.979 --> 00:02:24.379
 In flame and steel the music snaps

28
00:02:24.379 --> 00:02:26.000
 Broken walls to metal stones

29
00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:29.000
 The Empire's dead, the Lord lives afar

30
00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:45.000
 Dance, dance, the empire falls

31
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:48.000
 Melts of fire, the walls of doom

32
00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:51.000
 Let Viennese shake in the grand ballroom

33
00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:56.000
 Dance, dance, the empire falls

34
00:02:56.000 --> 00:03:01.000
 Melts of fire, the walls of doom

35
00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:07.319
 Dance, dance, until the crowds collapse

36
00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:11.860
 In flame and steel the music snaps

37
00:03:11.860 --> 00:03:18.099
 From golden walls to metal stone

38
00:03:18.099 --> 00:03:21.400
 The empire's dead

39
00:03:21.400 --> 00:03:25.780
 Long live the fall.

40
00:03:36.180 --> 00:03:39.780
 My dear, what a lovely evening.

41
00:03:40.620 --> 00:03:41.800
 Indeed, my love.

42
00:03:42.960 --> 00:00:00.000
 A perfect success.
