Old World Lies
The old world lies
Better not to be mislead
The old world has eyes
Peeping out of the back of its head
Magellan and Columbus signed our death warrants
Dealing with the back of merchant ships
Sugar cane and spices made the worst of us
Chains a'rattled all across the sea
The old world lies
Better not to be mislead
The old world has spies
Creeping out the back of its shed
The old world lies
Better not to be mislead
The old world has eyes
Peeping out of the back of its head
Magellan and Columbus signed our death warrants
Dealing with the back of merchant ships
Sugar cane and spices made the worst of us
Chains a'rattled all across the sea
The old world lies
Better not to be mislead
The old world has spies
Creeping out the back of its shed
