Morton’s Pillory Plea
I don't know
How much they pay for what you do
Captain Standish
Would any promises sway you
I don't care if you take down my maypole
I only care if you plan to let me go
I don't dare question any of their faith
I don't dare as they pillory me to waste
I don't dare fight your princes of limbo
I don't dare make this colony my foe
I don't dare
Hell no I don't dare
Let the sunshine
Brown my skin so fair
Hell no sunshine will not do
Turn my skin so dark
Like the heathens do
Yes I know our New Canaan feels so new
And I know these heathens have more truth
Yes I know
They're more human than me or you
And I know
This undermines your truth
Yes I know our freedom threatens you
And I know God smiles on all that's true
And I know this by smiles on every face
Men, women, heathen, Christian, every case.
Yes I know
Hell no I don't dare
Let the sunshine
Brown my skin so fair
Hell no sunshine will not do
Turn my skin so dark
Like the heathens do
Hell no I don't dare
Let the sunshine
Brown my skin so fair
Hell no sunshine will not do
Turn my skin so dark
Like the heathens do
Hell no ... I don't dare
How much they pay for what you do
Captain Standish
Would any promises sway you
I don't care if you take down my maypole
I only care if you plan to let me go
I don't dare question any of their faith
I don't dare as they pillory me to waste
I don't dare fight your princes of limbo
I don't dare make this colony my foe
I don't dare
Hell no I don't dare
Let the sunshine
Brown my skin so fair
Hell no sunshine will not do
Turn my skin so dark
Like the heathens do
Yes I know our New Canaan feels so new
And I know these heathens have more truth
Yes I know
They're more human than me or you
And I know
This undermines your truth
Yes I know our freedom threatens you
And I know God smiles on all that's true
And I know this by smiles on every face
Men, women, heathen, Christian, every case.
Yes I know
Hell no I don't dare
Let the sunshine
Brown my skin so fair
Hell no sunshine will not do
Turn my skin so dark
Like the heathens do
Hell no I don't dare
Let the sunshine
Brown my skin so fair
Hell no sunshine will not do
Turn my skin so dark
Like the heathens do
Hell no ... I don't dare
