[00:01.470]
[00:17.134] The deaths he caused were accidents
[00:19.374] He committed no murder
[00:21.702] Oh yes, some died of fright when they woke up in the night
[00:25.765] To find a leopard in the room where they'd been lain after the feast
[00:30.991] They should have known, those silly fools, the beast was tame
[00:36.250] Heliogabalus wasn't to blame
[00:40.015]
[00:40.470] For the deaths I'm illustrating in this quilt
[00:44.121] Heliogabalus cannot share any guilt
[00:48.165] Cannot share any guilt
[00:49.493]
[00:50.970] Some lived to suffocate under the suffocating weight
[00:55.244] Of a thousand fresh-cut blooms
[00:57.487] He sent cascading from the ceiling of his room
[01:00.592] Upon a crowd of his admirers
[01:03.522] How was he to know some sybarites
[01:06.088] Would drown beneath the flowers?
[01:09.718] If a parasite can't swim should we blame him?
[01:13.894]
[01:14.293] He was blond, he had blue eyes, he was completely without guilt
[01:18.770] As I intend to demonstrate in my Heliogabalus quilt
[01:24.843]
[01:40.849] They condemn his four year reign, his naked chariot team
[01:45.556] The deadly snakes released in the forum at the climax of the games
[01:51.199] His nights of gay debauchery, rushing through the slums
[01:54.644] Disguised as tavern potboys, perfume sellers, barbers
[01:59.921] Such exaggeration, such slanders!
[02:03.575]
[02:04.434] If you'd been emperor of Rome at the age of just 15
[02:09.494] Wouldn't you have done the same?
[02:11.972] So why then does his name
[02:13.832] Retain the mantle of the evil always claimed by joyless vultures
[02:18.944] To explain the strange allure other cultures?
[02:22.732]
[02:24.108] Heliogabalus wasn't to blame
[02:27.576]
[02:28.283] He was beautiful and sexy and completely without guilt
[02:33.091] As I intend to demonstrate right here in this quilt
[02:37.734]
[02:38.394] Condemn me freely if you wish
[02:41.096] But when my quilt is finished
[02:43.363] I intend to sleep as soundly and as well
[02:47.228] As Heliogabalus in hell
