Lyrics:

Sail On!
by Daniel Nealand

Hey Chris Columbus, what have you done
Hey you were the very first illegal alien
Sail on... Sail on and on and on

You cross the border, that's all she wrote
Should have put your people right back on the boat
Sail on... Sail on and on and on

500 years ago, armed immigration (was immigration invasion)
Makin' the land safe for your Alien Nation
Sail on! Sail on and on and on

Hey Chris Columbus now since you came
They Property values just haven't been the same
Sail on... Sail on and on and on

Stabbin' your flag in, the land you take
You cutting the mother and call her your real estate
Sail on... Sail on and on and on

To be Native American now there's the rob
Homeless in the homeland now he can't find a job

500 years it seems so long
Talkin' 'bout rights you keep right on doin' so wrong
Sail on! Sail on and on and on

European move in my neighborhood
Dealin' in rum and shootin' his gun, he's up to no good
Sail on... Sail on and on and on

Dangerously violent when he moves next door
Burning my town and gunning us down - colonial wars
Sail on... Sail on and on and on

European savages ravaging so many nations
Families breakin' on plantations, ghettos and reservations

500 years of exploitation control
Talkin' the Jesus but You act with no soul
Sail on! Sail on and on and on

Hey Old World Man: put down your gun
Almost exploded the planet, your time's almost done
Sail on... and on and on and on

Old world man's (a) consumption machine
Sick on your self, we will awake from your dream
Sail on... and on and on and on

Hey Old World Man: it's time you know
So tired of discovering you, now You got to go

500 years - new world at hand
Make it together, don't need no - 
Old World Man


Sail on!
...Sail on and on
Sail on!

Hey Cris Columbus what have you done?
