Animal Holocaust 'n'to War

Alex Dionisio

(interpolates music from “Angel” by Sarah McLachlan)

[Verse 1]
Animal genocide
What we do to them we do to us
Because we’re also animals, in the eyes
We kill them and eat them, we kill ourselves
We take the fluid and eat it
We steal the milk, we take the food from our babies too
Which equals starving them thin, and then to death
And it isn’t hard to understand
We take the eggs, we rape ourselves
As there’s war on them, there’s war on men
And then there’s war women
You don’t want this
You want bliss, and you want stillness
But it’s still just.. this
Until the world is “vegan,” the war will persist
If you go and eat animal foods, well then it’s simple, war will happen to you

[Verse 2]
We shoot them with guns no different from ours that we pick us off with battles we pick up arms
We cut their throats
We cut us short
Then we drain their blood
We’re drained of love
We hold them back
The same for us
This heinous stuff is happening so when it stops it can’t begin again
So it can’t re-begin
So why don’t we begin to win?
To clean beneath the skin, clean ourselves of sin?
You don’t have to wait for your friends
Because your animal friends are right now suffering in the wings

[Verse 3]
In between breakfast and lunch
And in between lunch and supper
Your insides are crumbling
And you’re suffering
Hear their cries
They’re terrified
The corpses are seen between the produce section and the dairy aisle
Dismember them, dismember you/me
Just like an amputee
Or the cadaver they’re scalpeling
All is not quiet when you pick up guns
So give it up
It’s all about what you started out doing to them
Because what goes around comes back around again
