Licensed to kill
only takes a few hours
Training to murder
to gain special powers
of aiming at big males
and those without child
its for pet food, so wasteful
and steak from the wild
theres Cow Beef and Lamb
and Pork all that lot
chickens and Rabbits
Can be cooked in the pot
Kangaroo’s Mrs
murdered at night
under the moon
in the glare of the light
from the truck what we see
is females as well
shot down and killed
some wounded
some fell
others limp
off to die in the Bush
to insure
a death sentence
for their offspring
lets push the farmers, the
Meat Trade the leather trade they are
on our Coat of Arms
tell me, its not true
used to denote
what Australians do
What meaningful deference
Nothing at all
Mothers are killed too
whatever the rule
Families wiped out
its true
its just unwholesome
what some farmers do
its wrong on all counts
a crying shame too
nut jobs and head shots
often miscue
miss and they wound us
that is the way
total injustice
Making us pay
pitiless fools
heartless and ruthless
it just appals
They love to threaten us
a menace they be
foul mouthed and rotten
Thats what I see
Often short tempered
and vinegary
stroppy and fractious
one big allergy
an appeal on behalf of all females
Shot down in cold blood
