Turn and run!
|
Nothing can stop them,
|
Around every river and canal their power is growing.
|
Stamp them out!
|
We must destroy them,
|
They infiltrate each city with their thick dark warning odour.
|
|
They are invincible,
|
They seem immune to all our herbicidal battering.
|
|
Long ago in the Russian hills,
|
A Victorian explorer found the regal Hogweed by a marsh,
|
He captured it and brought it home.
|
Botanical creature stirs, seeking revenge.
|
Royal beast did not forget.
|
He came home to London,
|
And made a present of the Hogweed to the Royal Gardens at Kew.
|
|
Waste no time!
|
They are approaching.
|
Hurry now, we must protect ourselves and find some shelter
|
Strike by night!
|
They are defenceless.
|
They all need the sun to photosensitize their venom.
|
|
Still they're invincible,
|
Still they're immune to all our herbicidal battering.
|
|
Fashionable country gentlemen had some cultivated wild gardens,
|
In which they innocently planted the Giant Hogweed throughout the land.
|
Botanical creature stirs, seeking revenge.
|
Royal beast did not forget.
|
Soon they escaped, spreading their seed,
|
Preparing for an onslaught, threatening the human race.
|
|
The Dance Of The Giant Hogweed
|
|
|
Mighty Hogweed is avenged.
|
Human bodies soon will know our anger.
|
Kill them with your Hogweed hairs
