Bhakti Rasa dasa - Don't Eat Your Friends

Have you ever thought
About the stuff you stuff in your mouth
Is it alive, is it dead, is it rotten
Do you ever think about the murder
Performed in your name
Don't tell me you're not to blame
Someone else to be killing
It's for you they're killing
So you can eat your share of meat

Think twice, don't eat your friends
It ain't nice

Have you ever thought
Love, or just a little kindness for another
We all share mother earth, so he's your brother
Your friend, maybe he depends
On you, so why eat your friend
You'll only suffer for it, in the end

Think twice, don't eat your friends
It ain't nice

Have you ever thought
Animals have an equal right to live
Just cause they don't put up much of a fight
You say, might makes right
Just put them to death, but out of sight
Then out of mind, are you out of your mind
Whatever happened to human kindness

Think twice, don't eat your friends
It ain't nice

Have you ever seen
Have a good look at what you eat
Someone's backside, someone's feet
That's what we call meat, it ain't fit to eat
Sooner or later you're gonna reap
Whatever you sow even if you don't know
The cancer still will grow
And you'll be out in the snow
In your next life
Just a little calf
Taken to the works and sliced in half
Cause that's your karma
Born in the care of a butchering farmer
