What can you expect

From filthy little heathens?

Their whole disgusting race is like a curseTheir skin′s a hellish red

They're only good when dead

They′re vermin, as I said

And worse

They're savages! Savages!

Barely even human

Savages! Savages!

Drive them from our shore!

They're not like you and me

Which means they must be evil

We must sound the drums of war!

They′re savages! Savages!

Dirty redskin devils!

Now we sound the drums of war!

This is what we feared

The paleface is a demon

The only thing they feel at all is greed

Beneath that milky hide

There′s emptiness inside

I wonder if they even bleed

They're savages! Savages!

Barely even human

Savages! Savages!

Killers at the core

They′re different from us

Which means they can't be trusted

We must sound the drums of war

They′re savages! Savages!

First we deal with this one

Then we sound the drums of war

Savages! Savages!

Let's go kill a few, men!

Savages! Savages!

Now it′s up to you, men!

Savages! Savages!

Barely even human!

Now we sound the drums of war!

Is there nothing I can do?

Will this really be the end?

Is it only death that waits

Just around the riverbend?

This will be the day ...

(Let's go men!)

This will be the morning ...

(Bring out the prisoner)

We will see them dying in the dust

I don't know what I can do

Still, I know I′ve got to try

Now we make ′em pay

Eagle, help my feet to fly

Now without a warning ...

Mountain, help my heart be great

Now we leave 'em blood and bone and rust

Spirits of the earth and sky ...

It′s them or us

Please don't let it be to late ...

They′re just a bunch of

Filthy, stinking

Savages!

Savages!

Demons!

Devils!

Kill them!

Savages!

Savages!

What are we waiting for?

Destroy their evil race

Until there's not a trace left

How loud are the drums of war

We will sound the drums of war

(Savages! Savages!)

Now, we sound the drums of war

(Savages! Savages!)

Now we see what comes

Of trying to be chums

Now we sound the drums ... of ... war!

Of course it means the drums ... of ... war!

Is the death of all I love

Carried in the drumming of war?
