Genocide (At Rockpalast)

[Intro]

"Genocide (The Killing of the Buffalo)"

[Verse 1]

When they try to tell you knowledge is a dangerous thing

The people that want it are the people that sin

People that need it, people that can never win

Let me get you outta here, little broken wing

[Chorus]

People 'round here, they get it right

People 'round here sleep right

People 'round here, I don't know

People 'round here that don't take kindly to killin' the buffalo

[Post-Chorus]

Oh no

[Verse 2]

When they tear up all the treaties and break up all the plans

Did you do your duty and kill on command?

Did you know the red man used to roam the land?

And the souls of lost warriors blow across the sands

[Chorus]

People 'round here get it right

Yeah, we like to sleep tight

People 'round here, I don't know

People 'round here that don't take kindly to killin' all the buffalo

[Post-Chorus]

Oh no

[Verse 3]

Listen to this story, listen well

Listen to the glory and the gory details of the tale I tell

Did you know the red man very well?

Did you know the huntin' ground before it became a hell?

[Chorus]

People 'round here get it right

People 'round here like to sleep at night

People 'round here, I now know

People 'round here, we don't take kindly to killin' buffalo

[Bridge]

They're killin' all the buffalo

Killin' all the buffalo

Ow

Wipin' out the buffalo

Killin' all the whales

Killin' all the tigers

Killin' all the buffalo

Ow

[Verse 4]

Listen to my story, it is genocide

How they were hunted and slaughtered till no one was left alive

Did you know the red man used to hold his head high with pride?

Till every man, woman, and child, destroyed

[Chorus]

People 'round here get it right

People 'round here, they like to sleep at night

People 'round here, I don't know

People 'round here don't take kindly to killin' buffalo

There are people 'round here that understand

There are people 'round here, couldn't give a damn

People 'round here, I don't know

People 'round here don't take kindly to killin' all the buffalo

There are people 'round here that don't take too kindly to the killin' of the buffalo

Ooh-hoo

[Outro]

Killin' all the buffalo

Killin' all the buffalo

Wipin' out the buffalo

Killin' all the buffalo

Wipin' out the buffalo

Killin' all the tigers

Wipin' 'em out, wipin' 'em out

Ow

Yeah, we wiped out all the buffalo
