Caligula Songtext

von Frances Barber

Do you like my new look?
It's very classical, don't you think?
It's just my little tribute to Caligula, darling!
Haven't you seen the movie?
It's a masterpiece!
All that history and sex!
I love it!

Caligula was a bastard
Like most important men
And, over the years, I've known
Quite a few of them
I wish I'd poisoned
As my little tribute to Caligula, darling!

It's just my little tribute
To Caligula, darling!
It's just my little tribute
To Caligula, darling!

He was a Roman emperor
Which makes him almost certainly bisexual
If not actually gay
But then
So many men
Are that way inclined
Don't you find?

I mean, can you believe he's straight?

It's just my little tribute
To Caligula, darling!
It's just my little tribute
To Caligula. darling!

Murder and mayhem
In the eternal city
Poison and torture
He knew no pity
Pain is always best
Inflicted at home
Down in your dungeon
Lie back and think of Rome!

It's just my little tribute
To Caligula, darling!
It's just my little tribute
To Caligula, darling!
