[Verse 1]
Turn and run, nothing can stop them
Around every river and canal
Their power is growing
Stamp them out, we must destroy them
They infiltrate each city
With their thick dark warning odour
[Chorus]
They are invincible
They seem immune to all our herbicidal battering
[Bridge]
Long ago in the Russian hills
A Victorian explorer found
The regal hogweed by a marsh
He captured it and brought it home
Botanical creature stirs, seeking revenge
Royal beast did not forget
He came home to London
And made a present of the hogweed
To the Royal Gardens at Kew
[Verse 2]
Waste no time, they are approaching
Hurry now, we must protect ourselves
And find some shelter
Strike by night, they are defenceless
They all need the sun
To photosensitize their venom
Turn and run, nothing can stop them
Around every river and canal
Their power is growing
Stamp them out, we must destroy them
They infiltrate each city
With their thick dark warning odour
[Chorus]
They are invincible
They seem immune to all our herbicidal battering
[Bridge]
Long ago in the Russian hills
A Victorian explorer found
The regal hogweed by a marsh
He captured it and brought it home
Botanical creature stirs, seeking revenge
Royal beast did not forget
He came home to London
And made a present of the hogweed
To the Royal Gardens at Kew
[Verse 2]
Waste no time, they are approaching
Hurry now, we must protect ourselves
And find some shelter
Strike by night, they are defenceless
They all need the sun
To photosensitize their venom
