1.	I'm A Bounty Hunter 05:11	lyrics
The people in this town cast their stones, they think I'm quite insane But the day the creatures arrived was not a figment in my brain The boy, my only friend, he put his trust in me He believed in what I knew, what the others could not see The hunters came down in their ship, the changers chose my face I too would change that day, a defender of my race I am more than just a lost soul I have forged a new path I am now a Bounty Hunter, a bringer of death I know bombs, the a lay of the land I will not abide the loss of my fiends Ug: We've traveled across the galaxy, but our numbers are few, Will you join our ranks? Our resources dwindle but, not our desire Not one Crite left alive! All the while the creatures multiply will this town become food for the Crites?! I know bombs, the a lay of the land I will not abide the loss of my fiends Ug: We bring superior weaponry, but you have something we need Will you join our ranks? The work we complete tonight saves more than just this town. Not one Crite left alive! All the while the creatures multiply will this town become food for the Crites?! Stalking through the night eliminate all we find follow trails of blood for the family I fight I was not prepared enemies joined to one they must not escape if Earth is to survive Ug: We've traveled across the galaxy, but our numbers are few, Will you join our ranks? Our resources dwindle but, not our desire Not one Crite left alive! I know bombs, the a lay of the land I will not abide the loss of my fiends The people in this town cast their stones, but it was I who saved their lives. They will know I'm a Bounty Hunter as I take into the skies.
2.	The Town that Wouldn't Die 05:54	lyrics
Another successful hunt deep in space when we receive a call the Crites once again threaten Earth but I wish not to return Ug: Fear not my friend My friend has come back to his home distrusted by the town This young man can not hope to win on his own. We must lend him aid. blood is being spilled once again nothing can stop them as they multiply I am called to hunt once again in this town that wouldn't die together we lead these people to fight. No jaws can claim the survivor's heart With fire and blade we reclaim what's ours. The bond we share is what makes us strong. blood is being spilled once again nothing can stop them as they multiply I am called to hunt once again in this town that wouldn't die Ug: My partner is now lost to me, a warrior of the highest grade. Despair taking over me. I reject this war,I give up my face! I know I can end this hunt here on Earth if I must sacrifice myself All of our other plans have failed. Without hope, these people stand no chance. The final blow yet shall be mine, I fly my ship to it's doom! Ug: To honor your bravery I wear your face No better hunter has lived! I'll continue to track and kill when I'm called Exalting the life that you give.
3.	From One, Many 05:08	lyrics
I wonder through the woods, again on the hunt Alone with no help from my friends I left my role as protector of the town to continue the search for the Crites CRITES!!! I happen upon some children, to them I seem quite mad I warn them to always be on guard By the time I speak these words the attack has begun Unknowingly they have fallen into total peril Having followed these people back to their homes The Crites now unleash their hunger If I do not arrive in time These families will be lost From one, Many Doom multiplied Many, from one Death with the reddest eyes! The Crites continue their lust for blood Others in the building fall The survivors scramble to the roof To imagined safety they climb From one, Many Doom multiplied Many, from one Death with the reddest eyes! Ever higher, they ascend. Clinging like rats to the beams Continuing to search a way out above, escaping the flames, smoke, & teeth The Critters, they laugh and toy with their prey. Enjoying the fear & the meat Their chaos is total, destroying the homes of the people they eat I arrive with weapons made by hand, moving from one room to the next I have killed many Crites before, I mean to kill the rest Through fire & teeth I maintain my edge, eradicating the nest As a Bounty Hunter, none can deny, I remain the best! A pod crashes down from over me, Ug: I request the two eggs that survive! Reluctantly, I relinquish the spawn But now I'm trapped inside!
4.	The Ultimate Killer 04:53	lyrics
Nearly fifty years have passed as I awaken on a scavenger ship I am stricken with fear to see I have not aged a day Trying to recall the events that lead me to the desolation of space Ug would not allow me to kill the last surviving Crites This crew is untrustworthy, they can perceive no threat Seeking only to sell the Crites to Tetra, the man I once knew as Ug! Ug: Hand me the eggs! Charlie: What happened to you?! Ug: Do as I say! Charlie: We hunted as one. Ug: You can not escape! Charlie: Then neither will you! Ug: I'm here for the Crites! Charlie: They're killing again! Ug: No matter to me. Charlie: This was our job! Ug: Things change. Charlie: Only you have... Charlie: You have been bought. Ug: You have grown weak. Charlie: Your mission is lost. Ug: It's lost to the past. Charlie: You were my friend! Ug: You're in my way! Charlie: I don't understand. Ug: Real power, I have. Charlie: So, now I'll hunt you. Ug: You don't have the strength. Charlie: Things change... Ug: PUT DOWN THAT GUN! Ug is dead We must evacuate Reactor critical Take off now. TAKE OFF NOW!!

about

A re-envisioning of the events contained withing the Critters film franchise. This story follows the path of Charlie McFadden, the only recurring character in all of the films and the tale's only true protagonist. This concept follows Charlie as he develops from a bumbling, social pariah to the galaxies only hope. As he battles the Crites, Charlie not only becomes a space Bounty Hunter, he eventually becomes the Ultimate Killer, and the Crites only real threat.

In the films, Charlie was expertly played by Don Keith Opper. He served as a great source of inspiration for this work. It is his portrayal of Charlie McFadden that provides the real over-arching story within the Critters films.
