Man Vs. Nature by Killdozer Lyrics

On the television, a ship was sinking
It seemed so real, but it was just a movie
Made by Irwin Allen, boy, what a relief
And on the ship was Ernest Borgnine
Brave in the face of certain death
He played a cop on a pleasure cruise
Along with his wife, an ex-prostitute
Of course, Shelley Winters
She was on the ship
She was good, too, but she died
As did Gene Hackman, a preacher
Who gave his life so that others could live
He died shouting "How many more lives?"

On the screen the city crumbled
So realistic, but yet another film
By the master of realism, Mr. Irwin Allen
No lesser men than Lorne Greene
And Mr. George Kennedy
Risked their lives to save the lives of strangers
Their selflessness was moving
Chuck Heston was in the movie too
But he was just a ham
On the TV, a building in flames
It was Towering Inferno by Irwin Allen
O. J. Simpson led the cast
In a man against nature
Fight for survival
It was awesome
And then it blew me away
