In 30 years some 90 million
Kangaroo’s have lost their life
Shot to death by shooters
At night, whilst feeding
So much extra strife
Australia’s National Symbol
Wild animals they be
God put them
on this continent
Surrounded by the sea
Welfare there are problems
Shooters are a pain
Working for
the MEAT trade
Dead flesh yes again
Leather shoes and footballs
Who needs the Kangaroo
Australia’s National Symbol
Its what the people do
Listen to the great cabal
Who have the grey suits backs
Who control the dead flesh trade
And welcome the attacks
They truly are Iconic
Only a god could have made
An animal so perfect
And upon this land have laid
Their karmic debt forever
80,000 years
Along with the Aboriginies
And of course all of our tears
