Lyrics:
To the civilized ways of the fairgoers These clothes Pity for these onlookers Cover their pale bodies from the sun and the wind Were ordered to remove this clothing Paid to get in Em as they always were Touched by the reaches of civilization Worth Imple ways Eople Ted in athletic matches arranged by the authorities Ength Kills Ino tribesmen and people from other lands --end of lyrics-- The lyrics come from a film called Bontoc Eulogy. The film script is below, the ALL CAPS parts are the lyrics in Reachers: One day the head of the reservation ordered them to wear trousers and shirts, to adapt TO THE CIVILIZED WAYS OF THE FAIRGOERS Markod tried on THESE CLOTHES, and he felt genuine PITY FOR THESE ONLOOKERS, who in shame had to COVER THEIR PALE BODIES FROM THE SUN AND THE WIND Later, the Igorots WERE ORDERED TO REMOVE THIS CLOTHING The spectators who PAID TO GET IN wanted to see thEM AS THEY ALWAYS WERE, wild, and unTOUCHED BY THE REACHES OF CIVILIZATION They wanted their money'S WORTH, to gaze at the sIMPLE WAYS of the little brown pEOPLE Markod compeTED IN ATHLETIC MATCHES ARRANGED BY THE AUTHORITIES, testing his strENGTH, speed, and sKILLS against other FilipINO TRIBESMEN AND PEOPLE FROM OTHER LANDS
