Lyrics

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
 ♪
 Mighty Hogweed is avenged
 Human bodies soon will know our anger
 Kill them with your Hogweed hairs
 Heracleum Mantegazziani
 Advance!
