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

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

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

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

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

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

Whose ancestors were slaves[00:00:33]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The colonies are free[00:01:08]

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

Across a poison sea[00:01:15]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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