- He came dancing across
the water With his galleons and guns
Looking for the new world In that palace in the sun.
- On the shore lay
montezuma With his coca leaves and pearls
In his halls he often wondered With the secrets of the worlds.
- And his subjects
gathered round him Like the leaves around a tree
In their clothes of many colors For the angry gods to see
-
- And the women all
were beautiful And the men stood straight and strong
They offered life in sacrifice So that others could go on.
- Hate was just a legend
And war was never known
The people worked together And they lifted many stones.
- They carried them
to the flatlands And they died along the way
But they built up with their bare hands What we still can't do
today.
-
- And I know shes living
there And she loves me to this day
I still cant remember when Or how I lost my way.
- He came dancing across
the water Cortez, cortez What a killer.
