I've always thought this song was sang from the viewpoint of native Americans looking at the "white men" settling in. Great one for me in any case.

@disfunktor Yours is the best theory I have heard. The line "Who fills his mouth with laughing" is built on the classic Native American syntax of their native tongue. Well done.

@disfunktor Spot on, I'd say!

@disfunktor best interpretation, imo; (nearly) everything falls in its right place!
