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 she's living there
  And she loves me to this day
  I still can't remember when
  Or how I lost my way.
    He came dancing across the water
  Cortez, Cortez
  What a killer.
