[Intro]
(Shit)
(Who are you?)
(Go home)
(The next song, please)
Yeah
Oh, um, we're from Louisville, oh—alright this is our last song
We're from Louisville and we thought you needed to hear this
[Verse 1]
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 his pearls
In his halls he often wondered
'Bout the secrets of the world
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
(Shit)
(Who are you?)
(Go home)
(The next song, please)
Yeah
Oh, um, we're from Louisville, oh—alright this is our last song
We're from Louisville and we thought you needed to hear this
[Verse 1]
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 his pearls
In his halls he often wondered
'Bout the secrets of the world
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
