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?
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!
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 psalm
It's a rather touching notion
All those prayers and those salaams
And who am I to bridle (ooh, wah-wah)
If I'm forced to be an idol? (Ooh-ooh, wah-ah-wah)
If they say that I'm a god, that's what I am! (Ahh-ahh-ahh!)
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 feelings should not be rebuffed
I'll never rebuff, I'll never rebuff the local feeling
No, my friend!
It's tough to be a god
But if you get the people's nod
Count your blessings; keep 'em sweet! That's our advice
Great advice!
Be a symbol of perfection (ahh)
Be a legend! Be a cult! (Ahh, ahh)
Take their praise, take the collection
As the multitudes exalt
Don a supernatural habit (ooh, ooh-wah)
We'd be crazy not to grab it! (Ooh-ooh, wah-ah-wah)
You got it!
So, sign up two new gods for paradise (ahh-ahh)
Par-a-dise!
