So you say that I am vermin
Taking all that's yours
I don't deserve to live
This land's not mine it's yours

So you say that I'm a cancer
Spreading through the woods
I don't deserve no treatment
Not a second chance

I've been around much longer than you
Played my part as I'm supposed to do
So why'd you want me to be erased
Terminated by the human race

Hear me now
I don't want to run
I don't want to hide
When you come around
Hear me now
I don't want to run
I don't want to hide no more

So you say this world is crowded
And I don't even count
I'm always in your way
There's no place I could stay

So where do I belong
When all I do is wrong?
How could I ever leave?
I've been here for so long

I've been around much longer than you
Played my part as I'm supposed to do
So why'd you want me to be erased
Terminated by the human race

Hear me now
I don't want to run
I don't want to hide
When you come around
Hear me now
I don't want to run
I don't want to hide no more
