Christ the redeemer towering high over rio
Rio de janeiro, rio
Where they held a summit to save the world
And to mark the time when development
As traditionally understood-had failed
And the affluent north raping the south
Investment from the north means
Economic bondage for the south
Under the burden of debt payments
I was with a whore in copenhagan
Drinking eight hundred dollars worth of
Champagne in kroner
She came from rio
We were trying to save the world
We did not get what we wanted
She wanted money–
She did not get what she wanted
I missed my wife–
I did not get what I wanted
Death sat on my lap
Death sits on all our laps
While christ the redeemer
Towers high over rio
Rio de janeiro. rio
This made me think of the Violent Femmes song:
Jesus Of Rio
Christ the redeemer towering high over rio
Rio de janeiro, rio
Where they held a summit to save the world
And to mark the time when development
As traditionally understood-had failed
And the affluent north raping the south
Investment from the north means
Economic bondage for the south
Under the burden of debt payments
I was with a whore in copenhagan
Drinking eight hundred dollars worth of
Champagne in kroner
She came from rio
We were trying to save the world
We did not get what we wanted
She wanted money–
She did not get what she wanted
I missed my wife–
I did not get what I wanted
Death sat on my lap
Death sits on all our laps
While christ the redeemer
Towers high over rio
Rio de janeiro. rio
Somewhere in those mountains there are three transsexuals triple penetrating another transsexual.
It’s not half as nice as it looks in that picture. National Geographic could make Buffalo, New York look like Paradise.
Hey! What do you know about Buffalo, NY?

The truth.
It’s ok. The place it self is really pretty but the violence due to society there is unbearable.
I lived there for 15 years, and to me it’s still the most beautiful place in the world.
