The Bugs Are Back (Helldiver’s)

[Intro] [Radio crackle] [Spoken] Attention, citizens. The bugs are back. Please remain calm... and load your weapons. [Distant soldier yelling] THOSE GOD DAMN CLANKERS! [Verse 1] Drop pod screaming through the sky Boots hit dirt and the bullets fly Four brave fools with a mission pack Guess who’s crawling from the cracks? Claws in the mud Teeth in the smoke One wrong step and your squad gets broke Call down thunder Call down steel Make those ugly bastards feel [Distant soldier yelling:] THOSE GOD DAMN CLANKERS! [Pre-Chorus] Reload! Stand tall! One flare! They swarm! [Chorus] The bugs are back The bugs are back Pouring from the dirt In a chittering attack The bugs are back The bugs are back For Super Earth, baby We’re pushing them back Stomp, shoot, run Don’t look behind Democracy’s got teeth tonight!!! The bugs are back The bugs are back So call in the strike And clear the map [Background yell:] THOSE GOD DAMN CLANKERS! [Verse 2] Someone yelled “sample!” Someone yelled “RUN!” Someone brought a flamethrower Now we’re having fun Beacon’s down Timer’s low Extraction’s where? Hell if I know Bile in the air Screams on comms One guy’s dead But he dropped the bombs [Radio chatter:] Automaton patrol detected. [Angry soldier:] THOSE GOD DAMN CLANKERS!!! [Pre-Chorus] Reload! Stand tall! One flare! They swarm!!! [Chorus] The bugs are back The bugs are back Pouring from the dirt In a chittering attack The bugs are back The bugs are back For Super Earth, baby We’re pushing them back Stomp, shoot, run Don’t look behind Democracy’s got teeth tonight The bugs are back The bugs are back So call in the strike And clear the map [Squad yelling:] THOSE GOD DAMN CLANKERS!!! [Bridge] Spoken over drums: Stratagem ready. Squad integrity questionable. Morale? Outstanding. [Gang vocals:] Drop it! Burn it! Blast it! Earn it! [Radio voice] Warning. Multiple hostile signatures. [Angry soldier, closer] I SAID... THOSE GOD DAMN CLANKERS! [Breakdown] Guitar chugs Drums pounding Bug screeches Robot stomps Gang vocals: For freedom! For glory! For the highly edited story! [Soldier yelling] THOSE GOD DAMN CLANKERS! [Final Chorus] The bugs are back The bugs are back Crawling through the smoke With the planet under attack The bugs are back The bugs are back Load another mag And tighten that pack For freedom! For glory! For the highly edited story! The bugs are back The bugs are back Now salute the flag And bring hell back [Final distant yell:] THOSE GOD DAMN CLANKERS! [Outro] Radio crackle [Spoken] Mission complete, objective successful
