Lyrics

[Intro] Oh, ah-ah Oh, ah-ah [Verse 1] Who gives you the right to come here and tell me I have to leave this place, my home To you it's a jungle, to me it's a kingdom Where my people are free there to roam Born with the stars we are happy and peaceful Till now, we were left undisturbed But you rupture the forests, our gardens And fill them with filth from your cities unheard [Chorus] Savage, who is savage? Leave your morals, stake your claim Savage, you are savage Modern man can take the blame [Verse 2] You poisoned my tribe with civilised progress Baptising our blood with disease You christened our bodies with sadness and suffering Saying then that your god is well-pleased What have we done to deserve such injustice? Explain to us please, if you can But you can't, no you can't, we can see it in your eyes Of us both, who's the primitive man [Chorus] Savage, who is savage? Leave your morals, stake your claim Savage, you are savage Modern man can take the blame [Guitar Solo: K.K. Downing] [Verse 2] You poisoned my tribe with civilised progress Baptising our blood with disease You christened our bodies with sadness and suffering Saying then that your god is well-pleased What have we done to deserve such injustice? Explain to us please, if you can But you can't, no you can't, we can see it in your eyes Of us both, who's the primitive man [Outro] Savage, savage Savage, savage Who's the savage? Modern man Who's the savage? Modern man
