We've done it, Emperor, we conquered the world So let's drink and eat grapes, General, we've got nothing left to invade There's nothing left to invade, he says, shaking No cowardly civilians so desperate for my saving, though What's this, my highness, haven't captured the Moon yet? I wonder if we'll soon get aliens encroachin' on Mars We haven't rockets, Caesar, only some slaves instead General, should we put them to work? Or should we pile up the dead? We'll make a tower, you can stand on their heads Tell folk we're under invasion, that should finally fucking motivate them It took some time, but seems we got to the Moon This tower sure is tall, Sir, from this height, your empire's never looked so small You will die with no one left to kill in the sky And then you'll fall much too high to see your slaves How they look you dead in the eye From here, you cannot see your statues and effigies All the blood and the dust spread thin, it seems entirely untouched There's nothing left to invade, no one to kill in the sky Who's gonna take care of your beautiful creations when you die? Pass it on to your children, the incompetent shits Fingers crossed, this little empire will always exist You look indifferent, Sir, too tired to speak Sir, from this height, your great achievements have never looked so fucking weak You will die with no one left to kill in the sky And then you'll fall much too high to see your slaves How they look you dead in the eye They look you dead in the eye, eye Dead in the eye, eye Dead in the eye, eye They look you dead in the eye You will die with no one left to kill in the sky And then you'll fall much too high to see your slaves How they look you dead in the eye Back home, your slaves are looking up at the Moon You cannot see them this high, but promise they look you dead in the eye
