In the dark night a giant slumbered untouched for centuries <br>`til awakened by a white man`s cry: "This is the Eden I was to find." <br>There were lands to be charted and to be claimed for a crown, <br>when a hero was made by the length he could stay in this dangerous land of hateful hate. <br><br>Curiosity filled the heads of these, there was an upper room they had to see. <br>Curiosity killed the best of these for a hero`s hometown welcoming. <br>Still they moved on and on. <br><br>Who came building missions? <br>Unswerving men of the cloth who gave their lives in numbers untold so that black sheep entered the fold. <br>Captured like human livestock, destined for slavery. <br>Naked, walked to the shore where great ships moored for the hellbound journies. <br>Bought and sold with a hateful hate. <br><br>Curiosity filled the breasts of these with some strange ecstasy. <br>Curiosity killed the best of these by robbing their lives of dignity. <br>Still they moved on and on. <br><br>Calling men of adventure for a jungle bush safari. <br>Come conquer the, his claws and teeth. <br>See death in his eyes to know you`re alive. <br>European homesteads grew up in the colonies with civilized plans for wild hinterlands, their guns and God willing. <br>Such a hateful hate. <br><br>Curiosity spilled the blood of these for their spotted skins and ivory. <br>Curiosity filled the heads of these madmen with the lies of destiny. <br>Curiosity spilled the blood of these, then blotted their lives from history. <br>Curiosity filled the heads of these, one man claimed all that he could see. <br>Curiosity still entices these madmen with a lusting and a greed<br>Their legacy, legacy, legacy...
