The Church - Cortez the k**er lyrics

He came dancing across the water With galleons and his guns Looking for the new world A palace in the sun On the shore lay Montezuma With his cocoa leaves and his 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 coats of many colors For the angry gods to see And the women all were beautiful The men were tall and strong He offered life in sacrifice So that others could go on War was just a legend Hate was quite unknown And the people worked together And they lifted many stones And they carried them to the flatlands And they died along the way But they raised up with their bare hands What we still can't do today And I know she's living there She loves me to this day I still don't know where Or how I lost my way He came dancing across the water Cortez, Cortez What a k**er What a k**er
