not we the indians

high-priests are never family guy
indians are never family guy

when working,one-man army
during holidays,solo wanderer
high-priests are never family guy
indians are never family guy

when peace,no-rain like ban
during war,nuke like destruction
high-priests are never family guy
indians are never family guy

when commited,magic like colonising
during rest,magic like relinquishing world
high-priests are never family guy
indians are never family guy
