letra de leopold ii - stogie t

[intro]
i’m not being, being a nuisance to you

[chorus]
i know you said that, you’d be coming home soon, oh
oh, i wanna be near, my lord
oh, i wanna be near, my lord, my lord

[verse 1: stogie t]
yeah
and the drone pilot don’t know violence from his own silo
untouched from the bone fragments and the bombs strapped and it’s all pyro
so inspired from a throne tyrant
your highness never walked the congo
heard the bongo from a chateau
pull strings like a banjo
f-ck the tribal tableau
cut the map and scramble
ivy rubber and gold
fight or die in chateau
half the population got both
cabernet sauvignon, a toast
to the vanquishеd old foes
but “the sinews of war arе infinite money”, so say cicero
village folks shouldn’t think of more
than their given work and to please the lord
the king abroad is akin to god
every edict from him is biblical
i’m sure, you must have hands to applaud
encore, cut short
when a man from the north want all, leopold (leopold)
[chorus]
i know you said that, you’d be coming home soon, oh
oh, i wanna be near, my lord
oh, i wanna be near, my lord, my lord

[verse 2: stogie t]
what’s a diamond in lingala?
brussels sprouts and pink salmon
cut your arms, call it stigmata
a king’s ransom to civilize ’em
what’s the rebel’s stance when the devil dance with idi amin dada?
but the hills have eyes when you give up lives for the valley of big data
swiss bankers, missionaries, mercenaries
contractors, oil tankers to fall back on
when the master is long past gone
honeymoons in the french riviera
told my bride, “mobutu live there”
across the shoreline, a stink in the air
the lingering long line of a terror
david livingstone, i presume
15 million children in the tomb
piccanniy pygmies in the zoo
picking minerals they can’t use
i’m sure, can’t treat a wound with a knife still lodged
leopold (leopold)
[refrain]
woah yeah, yeah yeah
woah yeah, yeah, yeah
how i’d love to get a little nearer, yeah, yeah
i know you said that, you’d be coming home soon, oh

[outro]
thinking that he was going to find the colonial paradise that had been advertised by king leopold, uh
and he had interviewed the king in brussels and been totally charmed by him, as everybody was who talked to the king
and instead he found a complete horror show
