Conquistadores Lyrics


Exploring the seas to conquer new lands

Troops arrayed by the church

Sanctified and blessed they set out

Crusaders, gentiles' scourge

They fight, they kill, they rape

Under the banner of the 'holy' church

They hunt, they lie, they cheat, they steal

Doing dirty deeds

Conquistadores -

- Hungry for gold, doing as the religious madman told

Conquistadores -

- Religion's knight, havoc and death caused by pride

Pearls of glass for ingets of gold

Violence, force and deceit

Taking the wealth or the Indian's life

Their way of feeding their greed

Heathen must turn to Christianity

It's like 'believe or die'

Arrogance and blindless, religion's force

Believers never ask the reason why

They fight, they kill, they rape

Under the banner of the 'holy' church

They hunt, they lie, they cheat, they steal

Doing dirty deeds

Conquistadores -

- Hungry for gold, doing as the religious madman told

Conquistadores -

- Religion's knight, havoc and death caused by pride
