Savage

Who gives you the right to come here and tell me,

I have to leave this place, my home.

To you it's a jungle,

To me it's a kingdom

Where my people are free there to roam.

Born with the stars

we are happy and peaceful 'til now we were left undisturbed.

But you rupture the forests our gardens

And fill them with filth from your cities unheard.

Savage, who is savage?

Leave your morals, stake your claim.

Savage, you are savage!

Modern man can take the blame.

You poisoned my tribe with civilized progress,

Baptizing our blood with disease.

You christened our bodies with sadness and suffering,

Saying then that your god is well-pleased.

What have we done to deserve such injustice,

Explain to us please if you can.

But you can't, no you can't,

We can see it in your eyes,

Of us both who's the primitive man.
