| 1 | Day after day they broke our backs |
| 2 | Digging their trenches and cutting their stones |
| 3 | Like savages they enslaved us |
| 4 | The wardens not satisfied with their cruelty |
| 5 | Set about their favourite play, to create new species |
| 6 | They created the cow from a water beast |
| 7 | They created the pig from a brush scavenger |
| 8 | And when they had finished extracting their pleasure |
| 9 | Rubbing the life force onto their dead grey skin |
| 10 | They threw us the carcases |
| 11 | Our frames grew strong, |
| 12 | our bellies tight our hearts cold with hate. |
| 13 | The scales of our deformed skin sealed with the cold and pain |
| 14 | Condemned to hell upon a planet of such beauty. |
