Matthew Sweet - Cortez The Killer слова песни
He came dancing across the waterWith his galleons and gunsLooking for the new worldAnd [the] palace in the sunOn the shore lay montezumaWith his coca leaves and pearlsIn his halls he often wanderedWith the secrets of the worldsAnd his subjects gathered round himLike the leaves around a treeIn [his] clothes of many coloursFor the angry gods to seeAnd the women all were beautifulAnd the men stood straight and strongThey offered life in sacrificeSo that others could go on[now] hate was just a legendAnd war was never knownPeople worked togetherAnd they lifted many stonesThey carried them to the flatlands[but] they died along the way[and] they built up with their bare handsWhat we still cant [do] todayAnd I know she [is] living thereAnd she loves me to this dayI ... cant remember whenOr how I lost my wayHe came dancing across the waterCortez cortezWhat a killer
