India and Pakistan trade nuclear attacks. Iran attacks Israel and Saudi as well. North Korea invades the South Nukes flying over Seoul And Tokyo Amid this total madness Giant ships appear in the sky And a full scale the alien invasion begins. . The terrified survivors flee the carnage As nuclear winter settles on the land. The invaders from the sky End the war Enslaving most humans That had survived.

Fleeing the wild animals The tigers, lions, and wolves That were feasting on dead humans And cattle everywhere. The aliens following the humans Looking for more to enslave.
