Columbus Day
Let's rename an entire race of people
They seem cool with it
Let's erase some history
Rewrite it and teach it to kids
Let's honor the man
Who never even stepped foot on this sand
Who never even discovered new land
And only got blood all over his hands
Well he arrived at the islands of the Caribbean, not America
And he, in a greedy quest for gold, enslaved them all
Then he killed them off
But let's honor the man
Who never even stepped foot on this land
Who never even knew the shape of the planet
And only got blood all over his hands
It was 1492
And it's true the ocean was blue
That's about it
They seem cool with it
Let's erase some history
Rewrite it and teach it to kids
Let's honor the man
Who never even stepped foot on this sand
Who never even discovered new land
And only got blood all over his hands
Well he arrived at the islands of the Caribbean, not America
And he, in a greedy quest for gold, enslaved them all
Then he killed them off
But let's honor the man
Who never even stepped foot on this land
Who never even knew the shape of the planet
And only got blood all over his hands
It was 1492
And it's true the ocean was blue
That's about it
