I kinda like it although I really have the feeling the just put all their older songs in a big box, shake it a little and *pop* this one came out of the box..

If this were true then everything since Fat of the Land would have been just as good, but they aren't. Still good but not Fat of the Land good.

"Molasses to Rum" - 1776

Molasses to rum to slaves
Oh, what a beautiful waltz
You dance with us, we dance with you
In molasses and rum and slaves

Who sail the ships out of Boston
Laiden with bibles and rum?
Who drinks a toast to the Ivory Coast?
Hail, Africa, the slavers have come!
New England, with bibles and rum

Then it's off with the rum and the bibles
Take on the slaves, clink-clink
Then hail and farewell to the smell
Of the African coast

Molasses to rum to slaves
'Tisn't morals, 'tis money that saves!
Shall we dance to the sound of the profitable pound
In molasses and rum and slaves?

Who sail the ships out of Guinea
Laiden with bibles and slaves?
'Tis Boston can toast to the West Indies coast
Jamaica, we've brung what ye craves
Antigua, Barbados, we've brung bibles and slaves!

Molasses to rum to slaves
Who sail the ships back to Boston
Laiden with gold? See it gleam!
Whose fortunes are made in the triangle trade?
Hail, slavery! The New England dream

Mr. Adams, I give you a toast
Hail Boston, hail Charleston
Who stinketh the most?

Nick Drake-- Cello Song

I would love to get a CD of his to hear more of his stuff. (I'm listening to this song on Pandora.)
