Countdown to Extinction |
| Endangered species, caged in fright |
| Shot in cold blood, no chance to fight |
| The stage is set, now pay the price |
| An ego boost, don’t think twice |
| Technology, the battle’s unfair |
| You pull the hammer without a care |
| Squeeze the trigger that makes you man |
| Pseudo-safari, the hunt is canned |
| The hunt is canned… |
| All are gone, all but one |
| No contest, nowhere to run |
| No more left, only one |
| This is it, this is the countdown to extinction |
| Tell the truth, you wouldn’t dare |
| The skin and trophy, oh so rare |
| Silence speaks louder than words |
| Ignore the guilt, and take your turn |
| Liars' anagram is «lairs» |
| Man, you were never even there |
| Killed a few feet from the cages |
| Point blank, you’re so courageous |
| So courageous… |
| All are gone, all but one |
| No contest, nowhere to run |
| No more left, only one |
| This is it, this is the countdown to extinction |
| «One hour from now, another species of life form will disappear off the face of |
| the planet… forever. |
| And the rate is accelerating |
| All are gone, all but one |
| No contest, nowhere to run |
| No more left, only one |
| This is it, this is the countdown to extinction |
