Artist/Band: Iggy Pop
Lyrics for Song: Caesar
Lyrics for Album: Roadkill Rising: The Bootleg Collection 1977-09 [2007]



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
