Amerigo

We were going to see the world

In this land

We placed Baptismal fonts

And an infinite number were baptized

And they called us "Carabi"

Which means "Men of Great Wisdom"

Where are you going,

And are you going anywhere?

Where are you going

Send me a letter, if you go at all

Ahh, the salvation of souls,

But wisdom we had not

For these people had neither King nor Lord

And bowed to no one

And they had lived in their own liberty

Where are you going,

And are you going anywhere?

Going in circles

Going in circles, anywhere

I saw the new

The inconstant shifting of fortune

And now I write to you

Words that have not been written

Words from the New World

Tracing the circles

Moving across my eyes

Lying on a ship

And gazing at the western skies

Tracing lazy circles in the sky

Hey!

Wake Up!

Wake Up!

Where are you going,

And are you going anywhere?

Where are you going

Send me a letter, if you go at all

It's such a delight

To watch them dance

Be it sacrifice or romance

Free of all the things that we hold dear

Is that clear, Your Excellency?

And I guess it's time to go but

I gotta send you just a few more lines

From the New World

Tracing the circles

Moving across my eyes

Lying on a ship

And gazing at the western skies

Tracing lazy circles in the sky

Tracing lazy circles in the sky

Tracing lazy circles

And the sky opened

And we laid down our armour

And we danced

Naked as they

Baptized in the rain

Of the New World
