lyrics

Wind flies into colosseum windows
Wind flies out with considerably less speed
Where does all the extra energy go?
There’s a machine below to which it feeds
It makes lions, it makes gladiators, all part of the show
It makes blood, it makes warriors, no one gets hurt
It makes lions, it makes gladiators, all part of the show
It makes popcorn, it makes peanuts, would you like a free shirt for the
Roman holodeck supercomputer?

How’d you think that Nero built his empire?
Did you think he had hired fifty slaves
Jesus Christ made Seattle under pressure
All the same he couldn’t build Rome in a day
It makes bricks, it makes mortar, watch that sucker go!
It makes war, it makes treaties, welcome home
It makes bricks, it makes mortar, watch that sucker go
It makes maps of the nation machine-grown by the
Roman holodeck supercomputer
Roman holodeck supercomputer
Roman holodeck supercomputer
Roman holodeck supercomputer

Wind flies into colosseum windows
Wind flies out with considerably less speed
Roman holodeck supercomputer
