===I Am an Indian (ver. 2)===
<poem>Green Jello cubes
Shaped like two boobs
I'm scared to meet my maker
If I seem a bit too rude
Fill in these holes
Randomly-chose
Still I got a
100,000 to 40 score
 
I am an Indian
Out saving souls again
I'll teach you how to dance
And make the raindrops fall
I am an Indian
Out saving souls again
I'll teach you how to put
Those stars back in the sky
 
Just one small rib
Make Adam's chick
But I was born of Eve
And so I haven't found a fit
My teacher corrects
Holds back the sex
Hits me with a ruler
When I raise all kinds of heck
 
I am an Indian
Out saving souls again
I'll teach you how to dance
And make the raindrops fall
I am an Indian
Out saving souls again
I'll teach you how to put
Those stars back in the sky

===We Are the Indians (ver. 7)===
<poem>
<poem>
Light up the fires, put on your paints
Light up the fires
We going to defend this land or hang our heads in shame
Put on your paints
We don't need their gods, we don't need their toys
We're going to defend this land
We've trusted our religion since we were just little boys
Or hang our heads in shame
We don't need their gods
We don't need their toys
We've trusted our religion
Since we were just little boys


We are the Indians
We are the Indians
Out saving souls again
Out saving souls again
We'll teach you how to dance and make the raindrops fall
We'll teach you how to dance
And make the raindrops fall
We are the Indians
We are the Indians
Out saving souls again
Out saving souls again
We'll teach you how to put those stars back in the sky
We'll teach you how to put
Those stars back in the sky


Grandfather came from Narragansett Bay
Grandfather came
He fought with all his courage 'til they took his life away
From Narragansett Bay
This is our chance to rescue our world
He fought with all his courage
Are you going to help us or pretend you never heard?
Till they took his life away
This is our chance
To rescue our world
Are you going to help us
Or pretend you never heard?


We are the Indians
We are the Indians
Out saving souls again
Out saving souls again
We'll teach you how to dance and make the raindrops fall
We'll teach you how to dance
And make the raindrops fall
We are the Indians
We are the Indians
Out saving souls again
Out saving souls again
We'll teach you how to put those stars back in the sky
We'll teach you how to put
</poem>
Those stars back in the sky
