Versus the Verses

This is why I scream…
Do you hear their screams?
They just want to be free
There are such horrors
Behind the scenes
Torture, cannibalism
Being driven insane
Mutilation, abuse
I don’t care what the bible says
We are not better than the rest

Clownin' Around

Send in the clowns
The circus is in town
See all the animals role on through
A lifetime of torture just for you
Performing tricks for your child
Totally unnatural in the wild
Elephants on hind legs
Tigers jumping through flames
The Greatest Show on Earth
Is now six feet in the dirt
We still have a long way to go
To get the animals out of these shows
More clowns, more acrobats
Time to end the animal acts

Anomalous

Animal consumption
Leading cause of destruction
Do you deny the pollution?
What is your solution
Be the change you want to see
Leave a better legacy
It’s not hard to make the switch
Throw tradition in the ditch
We’re anti-system, anti-corporation
Still we support the degradation
Can’t run away forever
From the effects of these endeavors
The way I live, the life I choose
It’s the easiest thing that I can do

Truckin'Prison Blues
02:42

Truckin’ and we’re all crammed in
Keep on truckin’ for the humans
My life doesn’t belong to me
Forced to suffer
For what most people don’t need
This truck keeps rolling
Rolling ‘round the bend
And I haven’t seen sunshine
since I don’t know when
I’m stuck in this prison
And time keeps dragging on
When I was a baby
I was stolen from my mom
What awaits for me
Is to be shot with a bolt gun
I know that I’m meat to most
I know that I’ll soon die
When I think about it
I hang my head and cry
This truck keeps rolling
Down to the slaughterhouse
Just so we can wind up in some mouths
This truck keeps rolling
Down to the factory farm
Tradition and convenience
Is why we suffer harm
I long for the day when
We’re all free
When everything we eat
Is cruelty free

Hungry Hungry Humans

Tragedy of the commons
Looking out for number one
Depleting all of the resources
Some things just can’t be undone
King Midas touch but only in reverse
He learned that greed only made things worse
Wanton devastation all over the earth
It’s what we’re taught from birth
Insatiable appetite for consumption
Our desire for more creates destruction
Hungry, hungry humans
Never satisfied
Horde all of your money
You can’t take it with you when you die

Dawn Of The Orcas
01:29
|
|||
Deny the facts
Until you’re blue in the face
The evidence presented
Proves you’re a total disgrace
Babies kidnapped in the middle of the night
Crying mothers hover
What an atrocious sight
What’s in a name?
That which we call an orca
Is still a killer whale
Food withheld
Obedience through pain
Ignore all the warnings
Nothing impedes financial gain
Revenge was bound to come
In the form of Tilikum
Drowned, scalped, and ripped apart
Let’s put an end to Sea World parks

Divergency Emergency
01:59

1994 and I was flipping burgers
I never thought that meat was murder
Then I read Diet for a New America
And I learned that nothing was
What I thought it was
I couldn’t go back
I couldn’t ignore what I read
I couldn’t shake the visions
Of all the animals that have bled
It wasn’t easy at first
There weren’t many choices
But I held on to my convictions
And ignored all the negative voices
It’s not that hard
In this day and age
Wake up to the truth
And embrace the green rage

No Soup For You
02:02
|

Apex predators
Top of the chain
Dwindling at a rate
That’s totally insane
Caught in the nets
People wanting tuna fish
Hunted down for fins
To wind up in a dish
Human activity
The source of it all
Declining populations
The ecosystem will fall
100 million finned annually
Millions more will die
For Chicken of the Sea
No soup for you
Say goodbye to the whale shark
Say goodbye to the hammerhead
Say goodbye to the great white
Pretty soon they’ll all be dead
No Shark Fin Soup for You
