Baby seals of just 12 weeks
still taking milk from mother
and we have Sealers and their wives
who can’t wait to wear, something or other
blankets, rugs and carpets
all made from baby seal
they have been bludgeoned till
their brains are turned to jam
for real
#
and the Sealers cannot wait to
eat the flesh of infants, they
will smoke it on the fender
by the fireside the next day
most babies are in their cradles
but not so baby seals
they get hammered pretty fast
to see how all that feels
seal oil becomes capsules
fur becomes some rug
shudder shiver all a quiver
heartstrings feel that tug!
as little babies cry out
for their mothers on the ice
big eyes weeping
sealers reaping
havoc roll the dice
Canada is evil
roll the dice again
another little baby
get its head bashed in
the chain
of events a lout steps forward
a cudgel in his hand
beating babies till they groan
then drags them across the land
get the rug out Mary
lay it on the floor
that was once 10 baby seals
minus blood and gore
feel how bloody soft it is
rub it on your face
these women out in Canada
are a, bloody disgrace
to so abuse the infant stock
is cruelty beyond
anything that happens
no wonder some abscond
bleeding like the clappers
they fall into the sea
sealers and their dealers
where would that lot be
up to their eyes in great white sharks
chomping on their toes
they need some of their own medicine
out on the ice floes
