Trouble In Ecuador
The Spanish walked right through the Inca’s door
Like Genghis Khan and sadly so many more
A place of grace where the cocaine is pure
Tell it sister there’s trouble in Ecuador
Trouble in Ecuador
A victim of endless war
People perpetually poor
Trouble in Ecuador
Priests came with their Catholic ambition
Defining the missionary position
Men dressed in black criminally scary
On your knees bow to the Virgin Mary
Trouble in Ecuador
A victim of endless war
People perpetually poor
Trouble in Ecuador
Paradise would be nice but gold is better
We’ll be kind do you mind an iron fetter
And the gods are sleeping just like before
Tell it brother there’s trouble in Ecuador
Trouble in Ecuador
A victim of endless war
People perpetually poor
Trouble in Ecuador
I want to laugh in the rain and live without pain
I want to be happy and be free from being vain
But there are gringos with capitalistic greed
Those who have plenty take from those in need
Quoting Marx the war of the classes
In our part of the jungle nobody passes
This is our own land of that I am sure
Tell it mister there’s trouble in Ecuador.
Trouble in Ecuador
A victim of endless war
People perpetually poor
Trouble in Ecuador
