Editing Ben the Destroyer

=== Verse 1 ===

When the others left the planet<br/ >
The ruling class elite<br/ >
Through some miserable mistake<br/ >
I wasn't taken aboard the fleet

They said they'll come and get me<br/ >
Before the earth goes up in flames<br/ >
But the proles know why we left now<br/ >
And they'll want to be treated the same

They have no place among us<br/ >
And our spaceships have no room<br/ >
These 20,000 peasants<br/ >
Must be left to their doom

But they will not let me leave here<br/ >
And they can't all come too<br/ >
So before the pod arrives<br/ >
I've got a job to do

=== CHORUS ===

I am Ben the Destroyer<br/ >
I was left behind<br/ >
With the charge to annihilate<br/ >
The rest of mankind

=== Verse 2 ===

With my class 9000 phaser<br/ >
I'll destroy the colony<br/ >
Women, men, and children<br/ >
None will escape from me

As I walk into the city<br/ >
I hear cries of anger and shock<br/ >
I simply keep on walking<br/ >
I pay no heed to the talk

Then, with sudden movement<br/ >
I open fire on the crowd<br/ >
They fall in droves before me<br/ >
Their cries now painfully loud

In the next few violent days<br/ >
I take them down one by one<br/ >
They run before me like rabbits<br/ >
Fleeing the wrath of my gun

=== [CHORUS] ===

=== Verse 3 ===

When at last the job is done<br/ >
The commoners all lie dead<br/ >
The survivors have fled to the hills<br/ >
I can rest from my task of bloodshed

I wait for many hours<br/ >
Past the time they said they'd come<br/ >
But no one comes to my rescue<br/ >
I'm left staring at the sun

It finally dawns upon me<br/ >
That they're not coming back at all<br/ >
They've left me here alone<br/ >
To await the planetfall

And as the earth begins to crumble<br/ >
I stare into the sky<br/ >
I curse the God who made me<br/ >
And I cry out why, oh why

=== [CHORUS] ===
