Countdown To Extinction
Endangered species, caged in frightShot in cold blood, no chance to fightThe stage in set, now pay the priceAn ego boost don't think twiceTechnology, the battle's unfairYou pull the hammer without a careSqueeze the trigger that makes you ManPseudo-safari, the hunt is canned ...The hunt is canned
All are gone, all but oneNo contest, nowhere to runNo more left, only oneThis is it, this is the Countdown to Extinction
Tell the truth, you wouldn't dareThe skin and thophy, oh so rareSilence speaks louder than wordsIgnore the guilt, and take your turnLiars anagram is "lairs"Man you were never even thereKilled a few feet from the cagesPoint blank, you're so courageous ...So courageous
[Chorus]
One hour from nowAnother species of life formWill disappear off the face of the planetForever ... and the rate is accelerating
