Front line stuff in Knightsbridge message to Harvey Nicholls

Standing on the pavement

outside your great store

watching  your security men

open and shut the door

 

I have got my megaphone

Robert’s here with me

we have got our banners up

its how it has to be

 

the street is full of vehicles

there’s people passing by

we are ranting to the world

some may wonder why

 

Harvey Nicholls thinks its right

to import clothes with fur

the dead bodies of sweet animals

who of course once were

 

alive and living peacefully

where they were told to be

in the forest on the plains

all of them were free

 

 

then some blasted ugly

left a  leg hold trap

and this wild soul was captured

had to take that rap

 

it smashed through its bones rapidly

it died a violent death

screaming to the sky above

fighting hard for breath

 

it left behind its lady

it left behind its child

its felt the pang of evil

that drives an angel wild

 

I put it to the passers by

why they wear dead skin

those wearing it

looked ignorant

as ignorant as sin

 

pale they looked away from me

they didn’t wish to hear

they didn’t want a leaflet even

so it did appear

 

 

I sat outside the store I did

ranting on my megaphone

folowing Robert’s clarion calls

all the words we each had known

 

watching people come and go

wearing fur up and below

clearly some dont want to know

they think that I’m a so and so

 

protesting on the street today

telling those who walk this way

animals were born to be

living in their skin you see

 

human beings come along

trapping wild ones which is wrong

stripping off their skin so they

can stitch it into clothes today

 

there are materials all around

that come from hemp and cotton

pound

for pound

much better than

the animals skin

much prettier too

and much less sin
front line stuff

outside the store

Harvey Nicholls I implore

why  do you  deal in dead bodies for

profit based on blood and gore

it can’t make sense

to draw this stuff

so negative

we’ve had enough

 

surely by now the message you

are hearing is what you must do

is stop these imports and let sense prevail

accept the facts

we do not fail

 

we wont give up

we wont back down

whilst you sell fur

we shall be in town

its up to you to say okay

we agree

to all you say

cruelty is sick I know

its not like a haircut

its a bad show

they die in abject agony

stripped alive for all to see

imagine the pain

it drives them sick

we really ought to miss this trick

 

its not as if you need profit that bad

that really you have to be awfully sad

stripping the souls down to the bone

these have feelings

and they moan

and they cry and they bleed

and they die

the die indeed

to make a profir

profit is that all

Hav

rvey Nicholls be ashamed

yes of course yes you are blames

selling carto loads to these people

some who did not know

some who did not care

some are very rare

 

today
