《New Columbus》歌词

[00:00:00] New Columbus - Julian Dawson

[00:00:15] The half the world travels half the world

[00:00:19] To see how the other half looks

[00:00:22] They roast themselves on beaches

[00:00:25] And read the latest paperback books

[00:00:29] They're waited on by natives

[00:00:33] Whose ancestors were slaves

[00:00:36] While further down in Sulphurtown

[00:00:40] The dead are turning in their graves

[00:00:50] Columbus has a credit card

[00:00:54] He's traded in his 'cross

[00:00:57] The king and queen of the nicotine

[00:01:01] Still guarantee the profit and loss

[00:01:04] We've given up the empire now

[00:01:08] The colonies are free

[00:01:11] To face a new invasion from

[00:01:15] Across a poison sea

[00:01:21] And next year we'll be sailing

[00:01:24] To a place we've never been

[00:01:28] To buy a better sunset

[00:01:31] Than the ones that we've already seen

[00:01:35] Next year we'll be sailing

[00:01:38] To a place we've never been

[00:01:42] To buy a better sunset

[00:01:45] Than the ones that we've already seen

[00:02:24] A nation's hope is rising

[00:02:27] As the walls come tumbling down

[00:02:31] You'd better join the party

[00:02:34] Or we'll burn your houses down

[00:02:38] And all those wedding speeches

[00:02:41] On the dignity of man

[00:02:45] Are fading slowly week by week

[00:02:48] Just like some package holiday tan

[00:02:56] And next year we'll be sailing

[00:02:58] To a place we've never been

[00:03:02] To buy a better sunset

[00:03:05] Than the ones that we've already seen

[00:03:09] The next year we'll be sailing

[00:03:12] To a place we've never been

[00:03:16] To buy a better sunset

[00:03:19] Than the ones that we've already seen

[00:03:28] Ones that we've already seen
