Caesar on a TV Screen (Acoustic)

Every night when we say goodbye

I know that I can see myself as a man

When I put on that suit, I don't have to stay mute

I can talk all the time 'cause my shoulders are wide

And I'm falling like the leaves on Leningrad

I follow your footprints when I can't hold your hand

My darling, believe me, I was born to be with you

But it'll be me that the world will answer to

And just for a second, I could be one of the greats

I'll be Caesar on a TV screen, champion of my fate

No one can tell me to stop, I'll have everything I want

Anyone and everyone will like me then

Everyone will like me then

When I was a child, I never felt like a child

I felt like an emperor with a city to burn

I got down on my knees, begged the men in the trees

To give me an answer, je ne veux pas penser

And it's raining like it did in Leningrad

My lover would like to buy a flat in Leningrad

And I'd trade my tongue in just to hear him every night

To talk about Red Scare and how they got it right

And just for a second, I could be one of the greats

I am Caesar on a TV screen, champion of my fate

No one can tell me to stop, I'll have everything I want

Anyone and everyone will like me then

Everyone will love me then
