Once upon a time
A child with no name
No grasp or brain at all
Was sent to get and sail
So far through a new world
And maybe he could find there
Some brave new gold
He had to learn with masters
He had to pay with pain
His sense and skills grew faster
He had to face his fate
Getting in touch with certain people
Reaching distant lands
Under his commands could so bring up
Lastly his plans
Why so hard? They will ask you why
Why so false? They will not forget
Why so weird? They don't understand
Why for gold? On and on the same
When the game was falling
Hope soon showed up
Forcing captured natives to speak
Double-dealing with both sides
After all, it was clear
Politics have no relation to morals
Why so hard? They will ask you why
Why so false? They will not forget
Why so weird? They don't understand
Why for gold? On and on the same
The booby trap caught Atahualpa
And he could not even react
Injecting flunkey Incas made the new empire rise
But at some point his friend brawled him and died
And so Pizarro was murdered by some Almagro's old ally
Why so hard? They will ask you why
Why so false? They will not forget
Why so weird? They don't understand
Why for gold? On and on the same
