King Caesar Lyrics
You want a medal
For the things you've done
Well prizes don't come around
As easy as you want em now
You want a mountain with your face engraved
So everybody in the world can see the face of nothing changed
Hip hip hooray you're our saving grace
Here's to you and your poker face
Hip hip hooray you're our saving grace
Here's to you
You want a monument erected in your name
And odds are we will tear it down
When you leave as quickly as you came
You want a place in the history books
But noone has changed history
With double talk and dirty looks
Hip hip hooray you're our saving grace
Here's to you and your poker face
Hip hip hooray you're our saving grace
Here's to you
You heighten yourself to lower the blame
And you martyr yourself to heighten the fame
And you lower yourself to draw the compassion
Here's to you
You want a medal for the things you've done
But if you ever really did a damn thing
We would've gave you one
You want a mountain with your face engraved
So everyone will know the face when approached by to run away
Hip hip hooray you're our saving grace
Here's to you and your poker face
Hip hip hooray you're our saving grace
Here's to you
Hip hip hooray you're our saving grace
Here's to you and your poker face
Hip hip hooray you're our saving grace
Here's to you
For the things you've done
Well prizes don't come around
As easy as you want em now
You want a mountain with your face engraved
So everybody in the world can see the face of nothing changed
Here's to you and your poker face
Hip hip hooray you're our saving grace
Here's to you
And odds are we will tear it down
When you leave as quickly as you came
You want a place in the history books
But noone has changed history
With double talk and dirty looks
Here's to you and your poker face
Hip hip hooray you're our saving grace
Here's to you
And you martyr yourself to heighten the fame
And you lower yourself to draw the compassion
Here's to you
But if you ever really did a damn thing
We would've gave you one
You want a mountain with your face engraved
So everyone will know the face when approached by to run away
Here's to you and your poker face
Hip hip hooray you're our saving grace
Here's to you
Here's to you and your poker face
Hip hip hooray you're our saving grace
Here's to you

this song is so cool
Awesome Song!
Love it.
It sucks that more people haven't commented on these Head Automatica songs. I think this song has the best lyrics on the CD.
Well, it's pretty obvious this is an anti-Bush song. The music isn't really all that great despite what you think of the lyrics, the flow is kind of weird. I like Glassjaw more.
I\'ve never heard this song, but when I read the lyrics I thought I must hear it soon!But couldn\'t this song be about the Roman emperor Caesar?
\"you want a place in the history books, but noone has changed history, with double talks and dirty looks\"
After all, Caesar is known because his mate Brutus betrayed him.
it doesnt necessarily have to b about bush or ceaser .. it could b about anibodi who thinks they're all mighty and powerful ... blah blah blah .. niways i love it .. it makes me smile.=]
i think its pretty difinitively about bush. it's basically talking about the false impression of improvement and glorification someone has taken upon himself. but what- in my opinion- separates it from being someone else, it the line "You want a mountain with your face engraved" line.
Helloooo, Mount Rushmore, great presidents, yo'.
