It's Tough To Be a God (From "the Road to El Dorado")

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 worshiped is a breeze Which rather suits us in the interim Interim, interim. It'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 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! What's more, if we don't comply With the locals' wishes I can see us being sacrificed or stuffed (You have a point there, 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 Never rebuff, never rebuff a 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 (It's great 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 on two new gods for paradise Par-a-dise!
