He came dancing across the water

With his galleons and guns

Looking for the new world

And [the] palace in the sun



On the shore lay montezuma

With his coca leaves and pearls

In his halls he often wandered

With the secrets of the worlds



And his subjects gathered 'round him

Like the leaves around a tree

In [his] clothes of many colours

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



[now] hate was just a legend

And war was never known

People worked together

And they lifted many stones



They carried them to the flatlands

[but] they died along the way

[and] they built up with their bare hands

What we still can't [do] today



And i know she [is] living there

And she loves me to this day

I ... can't remember when

Or how i lost my way



He came dancing across the water

Cortez cortez

What a killer
