augie march - the animals lyrics

when i was younger i heard a sound
came to me from the dark side of town
they were getting the cattle in
never heard such a mournful din
to the place where they render the beasts into muck
for frozen burgers and discount chuck
i caught the chorus on the reel to reel
you can still hear them singing

but it’s a song that won’t ever be heard
on the radio, don’t be absurd
it’s all too sad and you can’t understand a word
it’s not remotely danceable

wе’ll get what we desеrve for what we’ve done to the animals

oh gentlemen, ladies, your pound of flesh
and blood, take a barrel of the stuff
from the fruit of your own loins +
‘tidbits of your kids!’ +
sweet breads from the basket of love

all the beasts of the earth and the sky
seems we’re here just to make you die
bake you into a murderous pie
fry you on to a stick
every living thing with which the water teems
in the cloud of our legion latrines
in the nets of our trawling machines
in the plastic sub+marine…
all beasts of the earth, of the vault of the sky
drugged up, fed up, forced to multiply
burned out, poisoned, run down, electrified
clear out sp+ces to feed our faces…

and that’s why

we’ll get what we deserve for what we’ve done to the animals
