That heart we shall take
and in our domain do with it as we like
for from the dawn of time, from Eve to Aquarius
they have taken ours and done with it as they like
assuming mastery and ownership of all before and beyond

Show me one Venusian
who has not been hooked, spliced and pounded
with the hewed torso, spinning drills and cruel lies
only to use the wombs, replicate and flounce off unconcerned
to pollinate anew, stains of seeded droplets as sod-all legacies

Hawk, the tides have turned
we take war to the Martians and avenge all the fallen
in chains, in pain, starvation, bloodlust and wicked torture
they see flowers and honey, now we show them fangs and Serpents
in this new age, we wear the crowns, ours is the trumpets of Rome

Hail the victorious music of Venus
heady, ringing, it floats far and wide to Rubicon and beyond
we have slaughtered, taken towns and cities all over this our Earth
None is barred now, we walk in Lions den and sit at the top tables
we do as the Tyrants, we will put all dinosaurs to the cold steel sword

Yet, as always, Power corrupts
a Martian sits in Venusian dock, never an innocent you'll find
the truest lover, the kindest heart, caring, honest, straight and true
denounced and framed, his crime, to speak the truth without fear  
For Venusians, devastated for centuries by Tyrants' lies and flaws
could not abide the one Martian who says it as it is and would not lie    

So, his heart, they will take
and their domain they will do with it as they like
for from this new age, from Eve to this, our present days
we will take all dissenting hearts and do with them as we like
assuming serpentine mastery and ownership of all before and beyond
