Thread Name: Dead animal songs
Subject: RE: Dead animal songs
wrote this when they were killing all those farm animals cos of the so called foot and mouth.

They took the gun to the aminals head
It looked them in the eyes
They shot it dead
Cry cry the animals die
Cry cry the ammonals die

The killing fields are thick with smoke
No frolicking lambs, no carves to stroke
Cry cry the animals die
Cry cry the animals die

Life should be cherished,
Not taken with the gun
Or the lethal injection,
Watch the animals run
Watch the animals run

They took the gun to the animals head
It looked them in the eyes
They shot it dead
Cry cry the animals die
Cry cry the ammonals die

The farmers cry, I wonder why
Their animals are gone
Is it money, is it greed
Or maybe because there really was no need
Can we learn to live as one?
In peace and harmony
Not by the gun
Not by the gun

They took the gun to the animals head
It looked them in the eyes
They shot it dead
Cry cry the animals die
Cry cry the ammonals die
