"1491"

(a re-imagining of prince's "1999")

I was dreamin' when i wrote this, forgive me if it goes astray
But when i woke up this mornin', could've sworn it was judgment day
America on trial by a jury of buffalo
shouting genocide and rape, you know i didn't want to know
Say say nuke away KKK climate change, oops, party done
So tonight we're gonna party like it's 1491
I was dreamin' when i wrote this, so sue me if it ain't too clear
But when i woke up this mornin' could've sworn it was judgment year
Humanity on trial by a jury of dodo birds
Deforestation and dead oceans, was all i really heard
Say say nuke away KKK climate change, oops, party done
So tonight we're gonna party like it's 1491
If you won't get naked, don't bother knockin' on my door
I got a goddess in my pocket and baby she's ready to roar
Everybody's got a gun, we could all die any day
But before we let that happen, let's dance the night away

Say say nuke away KKK climate change, oops, party done
So tonight we're gonna party like it's 1491

1491

Don't you wanna go, 1491? (repeat)
