lyrics

There was this Coyote, she wasn’t treated very well by the people who had captured her, so she escaped.
Because of the way those people treated her she was mean, aggressive,
Would take whatever she wanted from whomever she wanted
Some call this being a good hunter
She would take anything she could from anyone she could.

She lived in a village and had taken whatever she wanted from everyone there.
Her den was full of beautiful things; handmade drums, buffalo throws, big screen, medicine rattles.
Because she was so greedy, she grew big and at first very strong. Then she got too large and slowed down. The other coyotes noticed this, decided to get together and take back what belonged to them. When she was out one day, they went to her den, inside they found their precious belonging strewn about carelessly; their mother’s burden baskets, pottery, beadwork, long hair cut off for speaking their language, creations stories, their Supernaturals, their identity of being First Nation people, relationship to relatives, their legacy, memories, joy, sacred traditions and life ways…
Teeth fallen out from beatings, their children, culture, prayers, dreams and visions…
The found Leonard Peltier. Leonard Peltier? FREE LEONARD PELTIER!!!
They found earth, water, STANDING ROCK!

They gathered up everything that belonged to them.
They took back the Cosmos, the Stars, their moccasins.
THEY TOOK BACK THEIR COURAGE AND DIGNITY!!!

When that coyote got back, exhausted and famished because she couldn’t catch anything…
She found her den empty! She started screaming:
“WHERE’S ALL MY THINGS??!!! WHO TOOK ALL MY THINGS??? SOMEONE’S ALWAYS TRYING TO GET MY THINGS!!”

She stormed to the entrance of her den, pointed her paw menacingly:
“YOU! I BET YOU KNOW WHERE MY THINGS ARE! YOU, I BET YOU HAVE THEM!”
“YOU, YOU BETTER TELL ME WHERE THEY ARE!!”
Her furry face red with rage, she turned her back to the town:
“WHEN I COUNT THREE, MY THINGS BETTER BE BACK HERE!!”
“THREE!!”
She spun round…NOTHING!
In an absolute tantrum, she bared her fangs, pointed a ragged claw and whined viciously:
“YOU, YOU, YOU…YOU’RE ALLLLLLL THEIVES!!!!

A family of coyotes was taking their evening walk, their youngster ran up to her and gave her is wishbone from dinner.
