The Brazilian Salsa - Dance Mix

Sitting in a Brazilian prison, captured and bound in chains
Wondering how I lost so much when I should've gained
Christ, even when I'm doomed to a lonely death, I'm so damn vain
I won't see her again, and it hits me like a train

Maybe it was because of Anne, that I decided to invade their land
But that's just how things go, when you're the leader of poor souls
Will I ever again see outside again, or some sunshine?
Or is death fast approaching, and I need to accept it's my time?

I guess that's it, then
I'm really at the end
I didn't put away my pride
I caused you to hide

So, if I don't make it back to Scotland, and see you happy
I bid you adieu, and wish you a happy ending without me...
But what was the point of building up an empire if you weren't there
To share it all with me, and treat you to a life that was fair?

I hope you are happy baby, wherever you may be
I just hope whoever you end up with is a better man than me
I guess that's all I have to say, but still I want you to know
No, don't touch that- no,
Don't turn off your phone, Jakob, no, no, no!

"I was on holiday in France,
Staying in a little hotel in Toulouse
Laying on the bed and
Watching the seven o'clock news
It seemed that Jacobi Shepard
Got far more than he bargained for
As the Brazilian locals cut him up
Without a sense of remorse
Bored, I switched my phone off
It was a tentative broadcast
It seemed to me that every time
There was an iconoclast
They always got their rightly
Deserved comeuppance
Such was the bliss of our millennial ignorance
Never a care for the world
Outside of our phone screens
Our lives are but plays
With the most ignorant of scenes
A matte black universe
Overlooking heinous crimes
Dictators will reign again,
Although they never bring a prize."
