Lyrics
I found it one day
I discovered it on a particular day
Buried in some ancient African cave
Found in an ancient African cave
Wrapped in a piece of leopard skin
Wrapped in leopard skin, referring to the Zulu Death Mask
The Zulu Death Mask
Refers to the discovered object as the Zulu Death Mask
They would say we'd rule the world in 30 days
People predicted world domination within 30 days
Ah, you'll never know, the Zulu Death Mask and me
Expresses the mysterious and unpredictable nature of the Zulu Death Mask
Zulu Death Mask and me
Repetition emphasizing the connection between the narrator and the Zulu Death Mask
In 7 days or so, we ruled most of Africa
Within a short time, narrator claims to have ruled most of Africa
The rest of the world cowered in fear
Implies that the rest of the world was afraid of their dominance
They sent in 50,000 troops to stop us
An opposing force sent a large number of troops (50,000) to stop them
I held the mask to the moon and the sun, and in a second I destroyed every one of them, haha...
The narrator, using the mask's power, claims to have destroyed the opposing troops swiftly
Now they don't mess with me, the Zulu Death Mask and me
After this display of power, the narrator asserts that nobody challenges them anymore
I held the mask to the moon and the sun, and in a second I destroyed every one of them
Repetition of the narrator's destructive use of the mask's power
Now, they don't mess with me
Confirms that, as a result, they are no longer confronted or opposed
The Zulu Death Mask and me
Repetition emphasizing the enduring alliance between the narrator and the Zulu Death Mask
Zulu Death Mask and me
Reiterates the narrator's continued association and power with the Zulu Death Mask
Zulu Death Mask and me
-Zulu Death Mask and me...
