Caesar Lyrics

Iggy Pop

People of America, I bring you a great army To preserve peace in our empire Throw them to the lions Darling, let us go to the banquet hall There will be a great feast tonight
Who are these Christians? What is this strange religion? I've heard it said they turn the other cheek
Throw them to the lions Throw them to the lions Throw them to the lions, two thumbs down
Ten pieces of gold for every man Hail Caesar, hail Caesar Grapes from Sicily, silks from Asia Minor All the tea in China
Throw them to the lions Throw them to the lions Throw them to the lions
Who are these Christians? Turn the other cheek
Two thumbs down The Christians are restless Why not let them worship their God? No one believes in the old gods
How tiresome, attending the rituals Paying lip service to the portents Burning incense at their shrine No one believes in the old gods
Throw them to the lions Throw them to the lions Throw them to the lions
The Roman Empire, the glory of Rome Hail, all hail Caesar, Caesar, beware, beware, the ides of March
Who is this man? Caesar, he is but a soothsayer He is old and his brain is addled, pay him no mind Throw him to the lions
Hail Caesar Emperor of Rome, hail Caesar Caesar, Caesar, beware, the ides of March Hey, who is this man? Caesar, he is but an old soothsayer Addled in his brain, pay him no mind
Throw him to the lions Throw him to the lions No one believes in the old gods The empire is tired, Caesar will rest now
We depart for my chambers Come darling, yes, Caesar Caesar will rest now Hail Rome, hail Caesar, hail Put him in the fiery pit
