Verse 1:
Woke up in the mornin’, coffee in my hand,
Heard a rustle in the pines, couldn’t understand.
Saw a buck with antlers, aimin’ straight at me,
That’s when I knew the deer were huntin’ free.
Verse 2:
They got rifles on their shoulders, camouflage coats,
Patrollin’ the back roads, makin’ all the rules.
Humans runnin’ sideways, trippin’ in the grass,
Deer in trucks and jeeps, watchin’ as we pass.
Chorus:
Deer hunt, tables turned, now we’re the prey,
Fur and antlers in the forest, we can’t get away.
Roadkill humans on the highway, silent and still,
Mother Nature’s fury, deer got the k**l.
Verse 3 (dark humor, absurd imagery):
Grandma’s in the meadow, takin’ a stroll,
Buck jumps from the bushes, fires a hunting roll.
City folks in traffic, gettin’ flattened like a pancake,
Deer laughin’ in the headlights, learnin’ how to bake.
Verse 4 (more storytelling, humans hiding):
We holed up in cabins, barns, and sheds,
Sleepin’ on the floor, hidin’ our heads.
Deer in night vision, stalkin’ the night,
Sniffin’ out our hideaways, ready to bite.
Verse 5 (grimly comedic, small town chaos):
Main street’s empty, the diner’s all bare,
Deer in the barber shop, combing their hair.
Church bells ring, but nobody prays,
Deer sit in pews, countin’ humans’ days.
Chorus (repeat, darker tone):
Deer hunt, tables turned, now we’re the prey,
Fur and antlers in the forest, we can’t get away.
Roadkill humans on the highway, silent and still,
Mother Nature’s fury, deer got the k**l.
Bridge (ironic reflection):
We chased them for centuries, with bullets and bows,
Now we’re the hunted, and it shows.
Every antler’s a warning, every hoofbeat’s a sign,
Payback in the forest, we’re runnin’ out of time.
Verse 6 (final absurd scene, survival twist):
Some folks tried farming, planting corn and beans,
Deer rolled through tractors, reignin’ like kings.
Even the police, guns in their hands,
Fell back in awe to the deer command.
Chorus (final, chilling and playful):
Deer hunt, tables turned, now we’re the prey,
Fur and antlers in the forest, we can’t get away.
Roadkill humans on the highway, silent and still,
Mother Nature’s fury, deer got the k**l.
