Lyrics:
[Verse 1] Exploring the seas to conquer new lands Troops arrayed by the church Sanctified and blessed they set out Crusaders, gentiles' scourge [Pre-Chorus] They fight, they kill, they rape Under the banner of the 'holy' church They hunt, they lie, they cheat, they steal Doing dirty deeds [Chorus] Conquistadores - Hungry for gold Doing as the religious madman told Conquistadores - Religion's knights Havoc and death caused by pride [Verse 2] Pearls of glass for ingots of gold Violence, force and deceit Taking the wealth or the Indian's life Their way of feeding their greed Heathen must turn to Christianity It's like 'believe or die' Arrogance and blindless, religion's force Believers never ask the reason why [Pre-Chorus] They fight, they kill, they rape Under the banner of the 'holy' church They hunt, they lie, they cheat, they steal Doing dirty deeds [Chorus] Conquistadores - Hungry for gold Doing as the religious madman told Conquistadores - Religion's knights Havoc and death caused by pride [Verse 2] Heathen must turn to Christianity It's like 'believe or die' Arrogance and blindless, religion's force Believers never ask the reason why [Pre-Chorus] They fight, they kill, they rape Under the banner of the 'holy' church They hunt, they lie, they cheat, they steal Doing dirty deeds [Chorus] Conquistadores - Hungry for gold Doing as the religious madman told Conquistadores - Religion's knights Havoc and death caused by pride
