gawain and the green knight - caligula lyrics
the emperor awoke today
his golden curls in disarray
fever swole his holy brain
he barely got one sandal laced
before he stumbled to the door
his guards asleep there on the floor
stepping down the marble hall
he braced his arm against the wall
and
all around him bounched the morning light
all that he could smell was his own skin
and that’s when it hit him
like jove’s lightning
he said
i wanna be selfish
i wanna be selfish
i have held myself upside+down
likе a purse above a crowd
feel all emptiеd out
and i wanna be selfish
i wanna be, i wanna be
three black snakes in an olive tree
and i wanna be a charioteer
with a tattoo on each bicep
i wanna be, i wanna be
the tallest wave in the ionian sea
oh, senators, are you hearing me?
write this down, you better write this down
oh
write this down, you better write this down
oh
i awoke today to see
a caligula in me
reclining against my spleen
sweating, shouting, shivering
oh, he hates to hear me speak
supplicating, mild and meek
throws his chalice at me
it clatters down my arteries
and
all day long i keep him nice and small
all night long he works at growing tall
and that’s when he gets his
song in my head
it goes
i wanna be selfish
i wanna be selfish
i have held myself upside+down
like a purse above a crowd
feel all emptied out
and i wanna be selfish
i wanna be selfish
i have held myself upside+down
til nothing more came out
feel all emptied out
and i wanna be
i wanna
mmmmm
and i wanna be selfish
