  General Comment:taken from an interview with yannis: The most straightforward song on the album, it's trying to deal with somebody being two-faced or even to the extreme, someone having a split peronality. The reason for why it's called Cassius - Cassius clay who became Mohammed Ali, two people in one. And Cassius the conspirator who he formed the assasination of Julius Cesar, very literal symbol for being two faced.

  General Comment:Cassius, was the competitive robot that was runner-up in series two of "Robot Wars"
  
  So I think that is what this is about:
  Cassius, it's over
  You're second best
  Cassius, it's over
  You're second best
  It's over, you're second best
  Second best, second best, second best
