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
