It's Tough To Be A God (难以成为神) (From "The Road To El Dorado" Soundtrack) - Elton John (艾尔顿·约翰)/Randy Newman
I hardly think I'm qualified

To come across all sanctified
I just don't cut it with the cherubim

The towns already on its knees
Being worshipped is a breeze
I barely know the words to any hymn

Listen if we don't comply
With the locals wishes
I see is being sacrificed or stuffed

Let's be gods the perks are great
El dorado on a plate
Local feelings should not be rebuffed

It's tough to be a god
Tread where mortals have not trod
Be defied when really you're a sham

Be an object of devotion
Be the subject of psalms
It's a terrifying notion
All those prayers and thos salaams
Any normal man would bridle
If he's forced to be an idol
And a normal mans exactly what I am

All the same it's pretty clear
The bastards don't keep much up here
They must have zillions under lock and key

But gods can force then to unleash
Enough to make us nouveau riche
Beyond our wildest dreams so follow me

Can't you see I won't relax
If religious maniacs
Tell me I'm all-powerful and sublime

How can I be their belief

When I'm lying through my teeth

Why don't we just say some other time

It's tough to be a god
But if you get the peoples nod

Count your blessings

Keep them sweet is my advice

Be nirvana be salvation
Be all things to all men

Butter up your congregation
Every sunday score a ten

The alternative is dire
Simply frying pan to fire
So sign on two new gods for paradise
Paradise paradise
