Extinction Lyrics by Vampire Rodents

War Music

1990

Landing in a Spanish boat
Claw no eyes
Cut no throat
See my babies eat your young
No severed limb
No ruptured lung
Swallowed whole
Dive in the water
Human son
Reptile daughter
We live to die and play in the mud
We need no credit
We need no blood

Here to breed
To serve the birds
Here to feed on meat and words
Extinction
It's really swell
No one remembers
Nothing to sell
Extinction
Not heaven or hell
Just a white man’s logic in a nuclеar shell

Useless body
Swollеn head
Complacent lives and overfed
Too bored to even play with yourself
Bad for your mind
Bad for your health
Muscle or membrane?
Granite or plaster?
Poisonous puppies warn of disaster
Stuffing your faces with nuclear waste
A new mutation
A master race

Here to breed
To serve the birds
Here to feed on meat and words
Extinction
You think I'm a fool
The dying race of a dried-up gene pool
Extinction
You've run out of fuel
You can’t make a fire
You can't make a tool

Clean the harbors
Kill the snails
Men are hunted by gangs of whales
No more weapons
No hiding places
Hairless bodies
Ugly faces
No more TV
No beauty prizes
Water is scarce when the ocean rises
No more proms and no more wishes
No you're only food for the fishes
We live to die and play in the mud
We need no credit
We need no blood

Here to breed
To serve the birds
Here to feed on meat and words
