Okay, maybe I can say more...

Seriously. What better movie than Pocahontas?
Not only is the music by Alan Menkin and Stephen Schwarz, (who are the greatest composition couple in the history of music!!!) but the STORY is so perfect!!
If you haven't gotten the drift yet, I'm into movies with serious themes that I can actually learn from. With West Side Story, the theme was race and hatred. I can say the exact same thing about this movie!! It's about two sides that are different from each other, and it is because they are different (and because one of the sides is controlled by a power-hungry governor) that they fight. And of course, we've got the couple in the middle. And of course, in the end, the couple gets separated. But that's okay because their parting provides us watchers with the tear-jerking end scene. Wow.. just thinking about it brings chills up and down my spine.
Some basic facts:
1. Pocahontas should forget John Smith and go for the lovely THOMAS instead! Really, that man is a BABE!!!! And he's so humble, too!! I'm digging Thomas. Christian Bale's voice. GAA!
2. Compasses do not do what they do in the movie. They point north. Period. Just wanna make that clear, in case any of you were wondering. Back when I was a child, I didn't quite understand that concept.
3. Governor Radcliffe... funniest part of the movie. "Successssssss willbe MIIIINNNNNNE... atlast."
4. Wiggins = second funniest character. "I like greul." "Giftbaskets!"
5. Grandmother Willow owns. No questions asked.
6. A friend of mine named Joe always goes on this spiel about Kokoum in that movie. I don't quite remember exactly what that detailed, but all I know is that whatever he says, IT'S WRONG!!!

What can you expect? the filthy little heathens
here's what you get when races are diverse! (OR their whole disgusting race is like a curse!)*
their skin's a hellish red, they're only good when dead
They're vermin as I said, and worse!
They're Savages, Savages,
Barely even human
Savages savages,
Drive them from our shore
They're not like you and me, which means they must be evil
We must sound the drums of war!
They're savages, savages,
Dirty shrieking (redskin) devils!
Now we sound the drums of war!

This is what we feared, the pale face is a demon,
They only thing they feel at all is greed.
Beneath that milky hide, there's emptiness inside
I wonder if they even bleed!
They're savages, savages,
barely even human!
Savages! Savages!
Killers at the core,
They're different from us, which means they can't be trusted
We must sound the drums of war!
They're savages, savages,
First we deal with this one,
Then we sound the drums of war!

Savages, Savages
Let's go get (kill) a few, men!
Savages, savages!
Now it's up to you men!
Savages!
Savages!
Barely even human!
Now we sound the drums... OFFFFFF... WAAAAAAAARRRR!!!
(crash!)

This will be the day!
Let's go men!
This will be the morning
Bring out the prisoner!
We will see them dying in the dust

(I don't know what I can do, still I know I've got to try)

Now we make them Pay!

(Eagle help my feet to fly!)

Now without a warning

(mountain help my heart be great)

Now we leave them blood and bone and rust

(spirits of the earth and sky)

It's them, or us

(please don't let me be to late!)

they're just a bunch of filthy stinking

Savages!
Savages!
Demons!
Devils!
KILL THEM!!
Savages, savages,
What are we waiting for?
Destroy their evil race, until there's not a trace left
we will sound the drums of war!
Savages! Savages!

(How loud are the drums of war?)

We will sound the drums of war!
Savages! Savages!
Now you see what comes
Of trying to be chums!
Now we sound the drums of WAR!

(is the death of all I love
Carried in the drumming of.... WAR!?!)

*note: the lyrics for the theatrical version, which are less harsh, appear outside the ( ). The soundtrack lyrics are in the ( ). I personally like the ( ) better because it shows just exactly what they thought of the native american people. Not just some fluffed up racism. it was hard-core. Evil. Of all the things that are kind of skewed in the movie, the most important is probably the true depth of the hatred between both races.
