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



Chorus:

Hey little Caesar, nobody messing with you

Hey little Caesar, go show 'em what you can do



Nobody said that it was pretty, 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, you got your pride

But you'll never let



chorus



(Spoken:)

Well you don't believe in the books and rules

'Cause you just believe in what you know is cool

Well they tell you that the world is rough

But they never rocked it hard enough - I can't hear you



They just don't understand, you gotta fight to be a man



chorus



Hey little Caesar, oh yeah, that's what it is

Hey little Caesar, yeah
