Savages

What can you expect from filthy little heathens?
Their whole disgusting race is like a curse
Their skin's a hellish red
They're only good when dead
They're vermin, as I said, and worse

They're savages, savages

Barely even human

Savages, savages

Drive them from our shore
They're not like you and me
Which means they must be evil
We must sound the drums of war

They're savages, savages
Dirty shrieking devils
Now we sound the drums of war

This is what we feared
The paleface is a demon
The only thing they feel at all is greed

Beneath that milky hide
There's emptiness inside

I wonder if they even bleed
They're savages, savages

Barely even human

Savages, savages

Killers at the core

They're different from us
Which means they can't be trusted

We must sound the drums of war

They're savages, savages!
First, we deal with this one
Then we sound the drums of war

Savages, savages

Let's go kill a few, men

Savages, savages

Now it's up to you, men

Savages, savages
Barely even human
Now we sound the drums of war!

This will be the day
Let's go, men

This will be the morning
Bring out the prisoner

We will see them dying in the dust

I don't know what I can do
Still, I know I've got to try

Now, we make them pay

Eagle, help my feet to fly

Now, without a warning

Mountain, help my heart be great

Now we leave 'em blood and bone and rust

Spirits of the Earth and Sky (It's them or us)
Please, don't let it be too late (They're just a bunch of filthy, stinking)

Savages! (Savages!)
Demons! (Devils!)

Kill them!

Savages! (Savages!)

What are we waiting for?

Destroy their evil race
Until there's not a trace left

We will sound the drums of war (How loud are the drums of war?)

Now we see what comes
Of trying to be chums

Is the death of all I love (Now we sound drums of)
Carried in the drumming of
War!
