Just another dead Lion

Just another dead Lion

just look at me long

I used to be king

I used to be strong

 

The jungle was my self claimed

kingdom until

the human tribe came

and my blood they did spill

 

in Mozambique the zone it came here

and I was gunned down

I am dead it is clear

my life was cut short

by the reign of the gun

by those who profess

to have us on the run

 

the rancour we feel for those

canned hunting sods

disaffected and disloyal

disillusioned bods

who talk conservation

whilst aiming their sights

on the lives of the kings

when our days become nights

 

tearing our hearts out

removing our crown

the blood and the snot

as we go down

 

look at me long

I was once strong

I prowled the forest

what I did wrong

was succumb to the man tribe

and let him see

that I had a heart

and a soul

and could be

 

abused by his evil

sunk by his vile

reasoning sadly

he did defile

all the wild species

even the king

so corrupt is his being

and what he does bring

 

the canned hunting muscle

its money and more

its corruption and hatred

its turned into  war

of attrition for wild folk

who live here in ease

waiting to be shot

or brought to our knees

 

 

odious unlovable two legged

shits

who smile and who pat our cubs

thats where it sits

trusting and being

all seeing

they will

pick up and gun

and bloody well kill

 

look at me all of you

I am now gone

once I was king

in the jungle upon

the pathways I lead

and I gamefully tried

to protect all the ladies

who came from my pride
