作词 : Brennan, Waits
  The women all control their men
 With razors and with wrists
 And the princess squeezes grape juice
 On a torrid bloody kiss
 What will you be wearing there
 The lion or the raven hair?
 The flesh will all be tearing
 But the tail will be my own
 In the colosseum tonight
 
 This one's for the balcony
 And this one's for the floor
 As the senators decapitate
 The presidential whore
 The bald headed senators
 Are splashing in the blood
 The dogs are having someone
 Who is screaming in the mud
 In the colosseum tonight
 
 Now it's raining and it's pouring
 On the pillaging and goring
 The constable is swinging
 From the chains
 For the dead there is no story
 No memory no blame
 Their families shout blue murder
 But tomorrow it's the same
 In the colosseum
 
 A slowly acting poison
 Will be given to the favorite one
 The dark horse will bring glory
 To the jailer and his men
 It's always much more sporting
 When there's families in the pit
 And the madness of the crowd
 Is an epileptic fit
 In the colosseum
 
 No justice here, no liberty
 No reason, no blame
 There's no cause to taint the sweetest taste of blood
 And greetings from the nation
 As we shake the hands of time
 They're taking their ovations
 The vultures stay behind
 In the colosseum, in the colosseum
 In the colosseum tonight
