F-15 screams 'cross the sky
Lets its guided missile fly.
It plows into a market square

One hundred roses take the air.
I know you didn't know,
Know you didn't know,
Nobody told you so.

Gonna lay down at your feet,
You watch her burn now, watch her scream.
When she's done there's plenty more
Her brother's waiting at the door.
I know you didn't know,
Know you didn't know,
Nobody told you so.

You wait here, wait here
I thought I heard the ground a-groanin'.
Wait here, wait here,
I'm going into town to warn them.
All I did find upon my way
Was Hell's own gates had opened.
For what it's worth, I'm pretty sure
That it's for you they're coming.

Big ol' hat on a little man,
Scrubbing blood stains from his hands.
You gotta get 'em, get 'em fast.
Freedom truck's a little low on gas.
I know you had to go,
Know you had to go,
Daddy done told you so.

Oil that chainsaw up again,
Gonna fuck this earth up at both ends.
It's Mother Nature's chesty cough,
One of these days she's gonna shake us off.
I know you didn't know,
Know you didn't know,
Nobody told you so.

Wait here, wait here,
I thought I heard the ground a groanin',
Wait here, wait here,
I'm goin into town to warn 'em,
All I did find upon my way
Was hell's own gates had opened,
For what it's worth, I'm pretty sure,
That it's for you they're comin'.
