The Lyrics

Save yourself from scary, evil Triffids!
We've all lost our sight.
Guess it's from
that comet that we saw last night

Save yourself from scary, evil Triffids
Hear them sting and slay.
I can't even
tell if it is night or day!

Here we are facing genocide
need some herbicide, for sure.
We've all panicked, because we're blind
we can't even find the door

Now I fear
we'll disappear forever
Our time's passing now.
and these plants will step right up and take a bough!
So stop yourself becoming evil Triffid chow.
Cav Central.

I've always wondered if a vegetarian is still a vegetarian if he's a triffid steak eater? No I didn't, I just made that up to compensate for the fact that I know this piece of 60s sf-trivia tooooooooo. :-)

Thanks guys. Know 1, please don't tell me you know of Triffids from that stupid American lighthouse movie. The book was 1951, the faithful TV series was 1981, and in between was a "name only" ripoff where they were melted by sea water. I just read the book again, it's dated incredibly well.

yes, I love the book, and I haven't seen the Triffid/Christmas scan before now, so that alone is 5s - but nice work too Steve

I know the book, the movie and the series. And I agree with the order in which you rank them. :-)

Seawater works very good to get rid of Triffids it makes them melt into puddles of yucky green goo
