"Slaying All Mammalians"
(A Parody, Sung To The Tune Of "Praying To The Aliens")
By Brian Winchester

Bravely I fought
'Aliens all over the place'
First just a few
Then droves began to fly
A screaming noise
A poor "please...no!" noise
We were just fixtures
On their "must-destroy" stage

They're slaying all mammalians
They're slaying all mammalians

Great sorethroat
And pain was in everyone
A syndrome toll check
'Their "mammal-death" disease was swimmin'!
Never a smile or frown
Their teeth were probably baleen
Massive death to be seen
Millions were dying

They're slaying all mammalians
They're slaying all mammalians

Here come some more
Could you ever believe?
The ships flooding the sky
Would wipe us away
Came to rearrange
Their minds are too strange
They don't imagine
And they didn't come to play

They're slaying all mammalians
They're slaying all mammalians...
