Iggy Pop – Caesar lyrics

Pop/schermerhorn 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 banouet 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 Ha ha ha ha Throw them to the lions Throw them to the lions Throw them to the lions Thumbs down 10 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... Ha ha ha ha ha 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 Hahahahahaha 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! Ha ha ha ha ha ha Hail caesar! Emperor of rome hail caesar! Caesar... Caesar... Beware the ides of march Eh? ! Who is this man? Caesar... He is but an old soothsayer... Addled in his brain Pay him no mind Throw him to the lions! Ha ha ha ha 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 Ha ha ha ha! Explain Request ×
