Wars of Expansion by Space Cadets Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Orbital bombardments commenced at the crack of dawn
Spectacular view from the shuttle as I plummet down
Land and see a youngling fleeing 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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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 killing blows
Personally ended the last of many Xenos

[Chorus]
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
