Prepared a feast for an emperor By all means have it served by slaves Take pride in your nature’s gluttony All the splendour of our supremacy displayed
I prefer to eat whilst lying down That way my stomach won’t be in my way The spectacle of eating – the way we are Eat my friends Won’t you eat some more By God, it’s all we live for
Amidst a downfall of an empire How could we care – we must eat some more The splendour of our lives to expire How could we care – we must eat some more Eat my friends Why don’t you eat some more By God, it’s all we live for
