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 odor They are invincible They seem immune to all our herbicidal battering 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 HogweedTo the Royal Gardens at KewWaste no time, they are approaching Hurry now, we must protect ourselves and find some shelter Strike by night they are defenseless They all need the sun to photo sensitize their venom Still they're invincible Still they're immune to all our herbicidal battering Fashionable country gentlemen had some cultivated wild gardens In which they innocently planted the giant Hogweed throughout the land Botanical creature stirs, seeking revenge Royal beast did not forget Soon they escaped, spreading their seed preparing for an onslaught Threatening the human race Mighty Hogweed is avenged Human bodies soon will know, anger Kill them with your Hogweed hairs Heracleun Mantegazzani
