Little Caesar

(album: Hot In The Shade - 1989)

Ten million stories in the city
Ten million backs against the wall
Desperation's out tonight
You can cut it with a knife
Everybody wants to have it all

Well, they tell you that the world is rough
But they never rocked it hard enough

Hey, Little Caesar
Nobody messing with you
Hey, Little Caesar, oh yeah
Now go show them what you can do

Now listen, yeah

Nobody said that it was pretty, no no
You haven't got a penny or a prayer
You know it's gonna be a fight
If you wanna see your name in lights
Ain't nobody gives a damn out there

Well, you got your guts and you got your pride
But you'll never let them see inside

Hey, Little Caesar
Nobody messing with you
Hey, Little Caesar
Go show them what you can do
Yeah yeah

Now go show them what you can do (whoa)

Well, you don't believe in the books and rules (whoa)
'Cause you just believe in what you know is cool (whoa)
Well, they tell you that the world is rough
But they never rocked it hard enough (whoa)
I can't hear you (whoa)
Oh yeah

Well, they just don't understand
You gotta fight to be a man
Yeah

Hey, Little Caesar
Nobody messing with you
Hey, Little Caesar
Go show them what you can do

Hey, Little Caesar
Oh yeah, that's what it is
Hey little Caesar, yeah
Oh, come on
(Whoa) Whoa yeah
(Whoa) Hey, Little Caesar
(Whoa) Alright
Now show 'em, yeah
