elton john - it's tough to be a god (movie version) lyrics

Loading...

[tulio]
i hardly think i’m qualified
to come across all sanctified
i just don’t cut it with the cherubim

[miguel, spoken]
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

[tulio, spoken]
the interim, the interim, that’s me and him
oh my god!

(sung)
[tulio & miguel]
it’s tough to be a god

[tulio]
tread where mortals have not trod
be deified when really you’re a sham
be an object of devotion
be the subject of psalms

[miguel]
it’s a rather touching notion
all those prayers and those salaams

[tulio]
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

[miguel, spoken]
you have a point, that’s very good thinking
so let’s be gods, the perks are great!

[tulio]
yeah!

[miguel]
el dorado on a plate

[tulio]
thank you

[miguel]
local feeling should not be rebuffed

[tulio]
never rebuffed
a-never rebuff a local feeling, no, my friend!

(sung)
[all]
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

[tulio, spoken]
it’s great advice!

(sung)
[all]
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

[tulio]
we’d be crazy not to grab it!

[miguel, spoken]
you got it!

(sung)
[tulio & miguel]
so sign up two new gods for paradise
paradise!
