[Verse 1]

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
(Interim interim it's me and him)

(Oh my God)

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 2]

What's more if we don't comply
With the locals' wishes I
Can see us being sacrificed or stuffed
(Yes you have a really good point there)

So let's be Gods the perks are great
(Yeah)
El Dorado on a plate
(Thank you)
Local feelings should not be rebuffed
(Never rebuff never rebuff the local feeling)

(No my friend)

[Chorus]

It's tough to be a God
But if you get the people's nod
Count your blessings keep them sweet that's our advice

Be a symbol of perfection
Be a legend be a cult
Take their praise take a collection
As the multitudes exalt

Don a supernatural habit
We'd be crazy not to grab it
(You got it)
So sign up two new Gods
For paradise
Paradise
