Letra de Cortez the Killer

He came dancing across the water With his stallions and guns. Looking for the new world And the palace in the sun On the shore lay Montezuma With his cocoa leaves and pearls, In his halls he often wondered The secrets of the world. And his subjects gathered round him, Like the leaves around a tree, In the 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 know. People worked together And the lifted many stones. And 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'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.
