bourgeois & maurice - gilgamesh! كلمات الأغنية

gilgamesh!
gilgamesh!
gilgamesh!
the epic quest of gilgamesh

this is a very loose translation
set in the cradle of civilisation
4,000 years ago
4,000 years ago
in the city of uruk
in the country we now call iraq
there was a terrible leader
and prolific tweeter

i don’t think they had twitter in mesopotamia, actually

i’m making it relevant for a contemporary audience

i think they can draw parallels themselves

fine

he was king
with total control
he abused it
he was a real assh0l_
but he was handsome
with a hot bod
he was one third mortal
and two thirds god
gilgamesh!
gilgamesh!
gilgamesh!
no one can equal him he’s unbeatable
gilgamesh!
gilgamesh!
gilgamesh!
sos from gilgamesh

people tell me that i’m cruel
they say i don’t know how to rule
but haters gonna hate
and traitors get decapitated

we are his subjects
he treats us like objects
sends our sons to slaughter
and sleeps with our daughters

i am incredible
no he’s not!
i am invincible
he must be stopped
come on mesopotamia
what’s my name_ia?
gilgamesh!
i am the best
gilgamesh!
there’s no contest
gilgamesh!
he’s so menacing

when you’re a star, you can grab anything

i want to be the brightest star
i want to shine for eternity
i want everyone to know my name
no one dares stand in the way of

gilgamesh!
gilgamesh!
gilgamesh!
sos from
gilgamesh!
we need your help gods
gilgamesh!
to control this despot
gilgamesh!
you created him
gilgamesh!
this is all your fault
this is all your fault
this is all our fault
an epic fail
he was supposed to be a hero
but he seems to be a
s_xist
violent
borderline far right
greedy
pathological
narcissistic
insecure
megalomaniac

well that is a hero, to some

worry not mortals, we’ve got this in hand
we know exactly what we’re doing
we’ll find a way to take back control
we’ll find a way to save you

save you
save us
save you
save us
save you
save us
save you/us
from the horrible
phenomenal
abominable
unstoppable

unelected head of state who profiteers from fear and hate
we really must emasculate this man before it is too late

the people love me!

we hate
gilgamesh!
