Caleb Hyles — It's Tough To Be A God (Feat. Jonathan Young)

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?!

(Sung)
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 him
Oh my god!

(Sung)
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 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 a plate

Thank you

Local feeling should not be rebuffed

Never rebuffed
A-never rebuff a local feeling, no, my friend!

(Sung)

It's tough to be a god
But if you get the peoples' nod
Count your blessings
Yeah!
Keep 'em sweet
That's our advice

It's great advice!

(Sung)

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!

(Sung)
So sign up two new gods for paradise
Paradise!
