And his subjects gathered 'round him
And the women all were beautiful
In their coats of many colors
The men were tall and strong
War was just a legend
And they died along the way
So that others could go on
Hate was quite unknown
For the angry gods to see
And raised up with their bare hands
And I know she's living there
What we still can't do today
And the people worked together
In his halls he often wondered
And they lifted many stones
I still don't know where
And they carried them to the flatlands
On the shore lay Montezuma
Like the leaves around a tree
What a killer
With his cocoa leaves and his pearls
Cortez, Cortez
He offered life in sacrifice
She loves me to this day
Or how I lost my way
Lookin' for the new world
A palace in the sun
With the secrets of the worlds
He came dancin' across the water
