What are the lyrics to the Aztec Priest song off Horrible Histories?

Answer 1

We're Aztec Priests so mind your head,

our prisoners always wind up dead,

our favourite colour is blood red,

we're not nice.

At an Aztec temple's opening day

we priests would please the gods this way

hordes of enemies we'd slay,

mass sacrifice.

To win at war, to make crops grow more, to cure our kids when ill,

the sun to shine, this song to rhyme, more victims we must kill!

Ah-ah-ah-ah you won't survive you won't survive,

Ah-ah-ah-ah ain't stayin' alive ain't stayin' alive yeah!

With sacrifice we priests appease our gods each powerful big cheese

let's hear it for your favourites please, ahhhhhhh!

We're doing it for Toci!

The Aztec goddess at the Earth's heart.

We're doing it for Chantico!

Goddess who makes volcanoes start.

We're doing it for Itzli!

The goddess of stone knives.

We're doing it for Itzpapalotl, Ometotchtli, Chiconahuiehecatl…

Er… some other gods great lives!

Ah-ah-ah-ah don't cross us Aztecs we advise ya

Ah-ah-ah-ah or you'll end up as fertiliser, yeah!

Our year starts in November,

when every priestly member

is asked if they'll remember

our Aztec dead.

We do this if you haven't guessed

by getting something off your chest,

your heart would probably be best,

or else your head.

And then on our year planners it's the raising of the banners

and it's only polite manners

to kill more guys!

December and January, dismembering methods vary

all you need to know is that we pile 'em high!

May and June, it's summertime, the killing is easy,

it's only halfway through the year, bet you're feeling queasy!

In Autumn time we sweep our homes and kill some more but then

by late October the killing's over, but then it starts up again!

Ah-ah-ah-ah you won't survive you won't survive

Ah-ah-ah-ah ain't stayin' alive ain't stayin alive

Ah-ah-ah-ah want to live until you're old?

Ah-ah-ah-ah avoid us priests, you've been told.
