consequently - kid creole and the coconuts lyrics
[verse 1]
the year is 1492
columbus sails the ocean blue
and stumbles on an island in the sun
the natives greet them with a song
the sailors dare not stay too long
for their concerns an economic ones
[chorus]
consequently life goes on
consequently life goes wrong
consequently man is born to be
a liar, a sneak, slave driver
[verse 2]
columbus rules on recklessly
in search of gold and history
and finds them in a port of call
and there they set up countless mines
and worked thе natives over time
until no labour forcе remains at all
[chorus]
consequently life goes on (an on)
consequently life goes wrong (so wrong)
consequently man is born to be (born to be)
a liar, he’s a thief, slave driver
[verse 3]
so now the sailors have a cause
to call again upon the horse
who honour them with generosity
but all of them are sent abroad
against their will, what a reward
to think we’ll go and live in misery
a tribe that lived 500 years
is decimated then and there
don’t be surprised, it’s just formality
[chorus]
consequently life goes on
consequently life goes wrong
consequently man is born to be
consequently life goes on (an on)
consequently life goes wrong (so wrong)
consequently man is born to be (born to be)
a liar, he’s a sneak, slave driver
a thief, a jiver, a creep, a conniver
consequently life goes on indeed
