Mekong Delta Ever Since Time Began
Way back in ancient days I took the shape of a golden idol They knelt in front of me Worshipped me, prayed to me I saw the greed in their eyes Longing - fame and fortune Yearning - Wine and women Craving - gold and happiness Demanding - eternal life Ever since time began I have been the curse of men I saw them burning down Cities and countries They killed millions of men To please me, to calm me down I saw the greed in their eyes Longing - fame and fortune Yearning - Wine and women Craving - gold and happiness Demanding - eternal life I've been around for so long Their faith and devotion make me strong Longing - fame and fortune Yearning - Wine and women Craving - gold and happiness Demanding - eternal life They've prayed at my altar With heads bowed real low And I've been around Whereever they go Whereever they go Until the end The end of time There's no escape How I like your Sacrifices Ever since time began Ever since time began
