Los Amigos - Valley Story lyrics

Listen children to a story

That was written long ago

About a kingdom on the mountain

And the valley far below

On the mountain was a treasure

Buried deep beneath the stones

And the valley people swore

They'd have it for their very own

So go and lie to your neighbours

Go and cheat a friend

Do it in the name of heaven

You'll be justified in the end

Use some uneasy friendships

To help you on your way

And then wake up tomorrow

And do it all another day

All the people chose to gather

Pondered how to move the stones

All the people were united

Except a boy who worked alone

And an old man who had warned them

About the treasure and it's curse

All the people laughed and pointed

No one thought they'd end up worse

So try and tell your neighbours

Go and meet a friend

Do it in the name of heaven

You'll be justified in the end

They may refuse to listen

So help them on their way

And then wake up tomorrow

And do it all another day

Almost all the valley people

Went in search of buried gold

They found the stones and then they moved them

And made their way down through the hole

They would soon emerge with treasure

As promised beneath the stones

Everyone was fit and healthy

No curse so they all went home

Too late to warn your neighbours

None will be your friend.

But you did it in the name of heaven

You'll be justified in the end

They all chose not to listen

So you didn't block their way

And you'll wake up tomorrow

And do it all another day

We return here three months later

The populations down to two.

What has happened. Where are people

Nothing here seems rich and new

Everybody wanted treasure

It all sparked a civil war

The boy with no greed still was playing

With the man who warned before…
