Wars of Expansion

Orbital bombardments commence at the crack of dawn
Spectacular view from the shuttle as I plummet down
They land and see a younglin' fleein' for the shelter
Horror in its eyes as I go helter-skelter
Butchered where it stood, never stood a chance

Poor little bastard's caught in our advance
Mourned at the futility of their resistance
Hoped for more in their fight for existence
Took their world in a day, as predicted
Cries of mercy, utterly rejected

On countless words, knee-deep in action
Terrestrials, deserts, oceans
Saw them all in the wars of expansion

Slaughtered beings of every denomination
Arthropods, reptiles, crustaceans
Killed them all in the wars of expansion

Bled for the human race, the one true faction
Pride, guilt, satisfaction
Felt them all in the wars of expansion

Greetings from beloved Terra, home of the human race
Salutations that bear tremendous terror for a bullet's in your face
An agent of death and mass destruction
Proudly served the homeworld with distinction
A dealer of lethal savage killin' blows
Personally ended the last of many Xenos

On countless words, knee-deep in action
Terrestrials, deserts, oceans
Saw them all in the wars of expansion

Slaughtered beings of every denomination
Arthropods, reptiles, crustaceans
Killed them all in the wars of expansion

Bled for the human race, the one true faction
Pride, guilt, satisfaction
Felt them all in the wars of expansion
