Christopher Columbus
Once upon a time I had this idea
That the world was round like me
So I asked the queen for three fine ships
To sail across the sea
Traveling with hoodlums as my crewman
Made me quite a little scared
Luckily I found that in the new world
Somebody was already there
I wasn't very sure just what to call them
See the funny clothes they wear
So I called them Indians
'Cause I knew they were already there

[Halford/Tipton]
Wild eyed and tight fisted
I'm fused to the bone
I stand contemplating
Reacting alone
Impaled with betrayal
The tourniquet turns
Society's creation
Pole axed out and burnt
Long ago when man was king
His heart was clean
Now he's stained class
Time has slashed
Each un-touched thing
So now he's just
A stained class king
Transfixed at deliverance
Is this all there is?
Faithless continuum
Into the abyss
Fierce is my conviction
Absolute my belief
I spit at you apathy
And seducer deceit
Wild eyed and tight fisted
I'm fused to the bone
I stand contemplating
Reacting alone
Impaled with betrayal
The tourniquet turns
Society's creation
Pole axed out and burnt
Long ago when man was king
His heart was clean
Now he's stained class
Time has slashed
Each un-touched thing
So now he's just
A stained class king
Transfixed at deliverance
Is this all there is?
Faithless continuum
Into the abyss
Fierce is my conviction
Absolute my belief
I spit at you apathy
And seducer deceit
