People of America
I bring you a great army
To preserve peace
In our empire
Throw them to the lions
Darling, let us go to the banquet hall

There will be a great feast tonight!
Who are these Christians?
What is this strange religion?
I've heard it said they turn the other cheek
Ha ha ha ha
Throw them to the lions
Throw them to the lions
Throw them to the lions
Thumbs down

10 pieces of gold for every man
Hail Caesar hail Caesar
Grapes from Sicily
Silks from Asia minor
All the tea in china
Throw them to the lions
Throw them to the lions
Throw them to the lions
Who are these Christians?

Turn the other cheek
Ha ha ha ha ha
Two thumbs down
The Christians are restless
Why not let them worship their god?

No one believes in the old gods
How tiresome, attending the rituals
Paying lip service to the portents
Burning incense at their shrine
No one believes in the old gods
Throw them to the lions
Throw them to the lions
Throw them to the lions

The roman empire the glory of Rome
Hail all hail
Caesar, Caesar, beware beware the ides of march
Who is this man?

Caesar, he is but a soothsayer, he is old
And his brain is addled, pay him no mind!
Throw him to the lions! ha ha ha ha ha ha
Hail Caesar! emperor of Rome hail Caesar!
Caesar, Caesar, beware the ides of march
Eh?! who is this man?

Caesar, he is but an old soothsayer, addled in his brain
Pay him no mind
Throw him to the lions! ha ha ha ha
Throw him to the lions!
No one believes in the old gods,
The empire is tired, Caesar will rest now.

We depart for my chambers
Come darling
"yes Caesar"
Caesar will rest now
Hail Rome hail Caesar hail
Put him in the fiery pit
Ha ha ha ha!

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
