[Verse 1]
Operation 'Ranch Hand'
Spray down the death
Down on their farms
Assault against the population
Suppress by military arms
Only you prevent the forest
Legalize the war
They are deprived of their power
Eradication without law
[Chorus]
Agent Orange
Agent Orange
Agent Orange
A fire that doesn't burn
[Verse 2]
All the marks erased long ago
Scars are healed up
Cancer creeps into their innocent souls
Memorials of flesh and blood
Have survived unlawfully punished
Poisoned till the end of their lives
Physical deformity
What medicine will help?
Still births will rise
[Chorus]
Agent Orange
Ooh, Agent Orange
Agent Orange
A fire that doesn't burn
[Skit]

[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
Grieved weak hearts are crying
Waiting for the end
In this condition they are dying
Newborns of the damned
Preserved in test tubes for generations
Vicious circle of transmission
There's no way for reparations
Must live with chemical agent called
[Chorus]
Agent Orange
Agent Orange
Agent Orange
A fire that doesn't burn
[Outro]
Agent Orange... burn
Agent Orange... burn
Agent Orange... burn
