lyrics

When I was growing up I thought Columbus was a hero
Because we celebrated him every October
And in school they tried to make him out to be the man
But then I grew up and I did not understand
Why the fuck do we think he's the man?
He raped and tortured and stole across this land
He inspired others to do the same Pizarro thought it was just a game
So he enslaved all the people and then he called it Spain
He called it Spain

So fuck fuck fuck conquistadores
Raping women and breaking down doors
Here's to all the towns they set on fire
So fuck fuck fuck Hernan Cortez
And all of the fucking rest
They were just a bunch of dirty liars

Because they stole the land they stole the food
Killed most of the people enslaved them too
And then they called it saving the planet
Because you aren't even people
No you don't have a soul, you have no soul
Because I sent a letter to the queen telling her your all obscene
And now she thinks you are not human
Just savages an heart eaters

So fuck fuck fuck Hernan Cortez
And all of the fucking rest
They were just a bunch of dirty liars
So fuck fuck fuck conquistadores
Raping women and breaking down doors
Here's to all the towns they set on fire
