It's Just My Little Tribute To Caligula, Darling! - Pet Shop Boys, Jonathan Harvey, Billie Trix

BILLIE

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 of 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’d wish I’d poisoned

As 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 it, he’s straight?

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!
