It's Tough to Be a God

I hardly think I'm qualified To come across all sanctified I just don't cut it with the cherubim (Tulio, what are you talking about?) Oww! There again they're on their knees Being worshipped is a breeze Which rather suits us in the interim The interim, the interim That's me and them Oh my god It's tough to be a god Tread where mortals have not trod Be deified when really you're a sham Be an object of devotion Be the subject of psalms It's a rather touching notion All those prayers and those salaams And who am I to bridle If I'm forced to be an idol? If they say that I'm a god That's what I am! What's more if we don't comply With the locals' wishes, I I can see us being sacrificed or stuffed You have a point That's very good thinking So let's be gods, the perks are great! Yeah, El Dorado on our plate (thank you) Local feeling should not be rebuffed Never rebuffed A-never rebuff a local feeling No, my friend! It's tough to be a god But if you get the peoples' nod Count your blessings Keep 'em sweet That's our advice It's great advice Be a symbol of perfection Be a legend Be a cult Take their praise, take the collection As the multitudes exalt Don a supernatural habit We'd be crazy not to grab it! You got it! So sign up two new gods for paradise Paradise!
