Its a lie
that stretches right back
through the decades
supported by the doctors and of course
nutritionists and nursing staff
have encompassed it and everybody
overlooks the source
to any thinking person
its seems obvious
an ungulate with hooves
it cannot be
its most a unlikely mother
for a tiny human baby
why did they believe it
but then we
listen more to those who
lie their heads off
than those who tell the truth
it seems to me
and then they tend to help their cause
by going
to other folk who do it effectively
they pay the advertisers who
pull in all the white coats
and white coats give impressions
which seem true
a cow produces milk for its own offspring
doesn’t it seem relevant to you?
the make up of that milk is for the cow
its far removed from anything we need
but who cares nobody around had thought up why
and that is why the corporates succeed
the dairy industry is in bed with the cereals
they created a new breakfast and so they
brought together fractured cereals and ungulates milk
and the whole world then went bonkers on that day
remember these are massive corporations
with millions in their coffers
so they can
influence a lot of important people
money talks
that’s how it all began
and gradually over time
some 300 years or so
people have accepted it as true
if you have a baby its cows milk that you feed it
and kill the calves for they are no good for you
so in the last lets say 100 years or so
unimaginable numbers of baby cows were killed
male calves do not give milk so they are slaughtered
4 or 5 days old their blood is spilled
its chilling to imagine all this karma
but its out there these were babies after all
the milk we stole it had then to be processed
out of existence for as it was it was too close to call
allergies and TB and a lot besides
were potential risks to human anyway
so they then worked out all sorts of bloody processes
which denatured it but allowed us all to pay
and pay we have in sickness and obesity
sugar and salt became bedfellows too
the cereals were laced with refined quantities
and breakfast well its what you have to do
so our children became ungulates their bones
grew at a rate
their organs on the other hand
were rather more sedate
and as processes became more outlandish
that caused problems too
I haven’t got the space nor time
to detail them all for you
except to say that humans beings
should go on the breast
not on some hairy udder
and I do not jest
to do this is so stupid
it cannot ever be
and yet milk sales are growing
which is such madness to me
and now of course the corporates
are into making dosh
anyway they think they can
and nothing now does wash
but all these antibiotics
fed to cows now every day
comes through in the milk
and blows us all away
infections on the increase
but of course the bugs have wind
to really what is going on
and have in fact now pinned
their chances of survival
on getting to grips with what
antibiotics we offer them
and we offer them a lot
so they are now immune
to many
and so infections do
get out of control real fast
and that’s is down to you
no one puts two and two together
any more
they come up with another answer
which certainly isn’t 4
and everybody forgets the sum
its money in the bank
flavour it process it
yea it would taste rank
but by the time the dairy boys
have processed more and more
the pus levels have risen
and that my friends is for sure
GM is in their fighting
posilac’s on board
really is it something
that anyone dare afford
getting the cows to produce
more milk than Nature chose to give
just so the dairy industry can
help itself to live
dairy milk is cows milk
but calves are killed so you
can fill the dairies coffers
which is what they want you to do
