“Swarm” is a driving thrash metal song about GWAR addressing humanity at large and commanding them to stop overpopulating the planet. On vinyl pressings of The Blood of Gods, “Swarm” is the opening track.
The intro of “Swarm” contains television static, clips of news programs, and quick snippets fr...
[Intro: Static]
"Ha ha ha..."
"Panic continues at this hour as GWAR prepares to address the world from their Antarctic stronghold."
"Little Flopsy flaps around..."
"Another [?] I heard is the U.S. President has authorized the use of nuclear force..."
[Verse 1]
People of Earth
You're a swarm of flies
Maggots crawling
From between your thighs
Crammed into cities
That soar to the skies
Filthy cockroaches
Why won't you fucking die?
[Chorus]
(Stop breathing, stop eating)
The human swarm consumes the earth
(Stop breeding, stop feeding)
You eat and fuck, it's all your worth
(Stop pissing, stop shitting)
Your existence is a curse
(Stop crying, start dying)
Will you please stop giving birth?
[Verse 2]
You suck and fuck
Your way to doom
Fill up the earth
With the filth from your wombs
Breeding like dogs
There's no more room
This dying planet
Has become your tomb
[Chorus]
(Stop breathing, stop eating)
The human swarm consumes the earth
(Stop breeding, stop feeding)
You eat and fuck, it's all your worth
(Stop pissing, stop shitting)
Your existence is a curse
(Stop crying, start dying)
Will you please stop giving birth?
[Interlude]
Despite our best efforts
You just won't go away
There's ten of you born
For each one that we slay
Useless eaters
Just take up space
Fucking breeders
You're all a wretched waste
You've been misinformed, my dear
The global ill that you should fear
Is not global warming
Stop global swarming!
[Solo]
[Chorus]
(Stop breathing, stop eating)
The human swarm consumes the earth
(Stop breeding, stop feeding)
You eat and fuck, it's all your worth
(Stop pissing, stop shitting)
Your existence is a curse
(Stop crying, start dying)
Will you please stop giving birth?
