Rules and regulations dont mean a lot, alas
horses all the forces available how crass
the hideousness and the squalor
these are racehorses and they are
shipped off to the death camps
seemingly to star
in horror of sick making
wasteage from the track
thoroughbreds alleged to be re-homed
But on their back
in some rotten abattoir
as fearful as can be
fully awake and knowing
for others they can see
really handsome horses
being killed right there
its against all regulations
These sensitives despair
unlike the so called workers
as insensitive as hell a great blemish
on the industry
they profess to know so well
its easy to imagine
whats really going on
the breeders are breeding
many souls
so losers must be gone
even pretty good winners
are shipped off every day
and end up in this hell hole
the most indelicate display
of evil of dark torture
of impropriety
they havent got a hope in hells chance
to never ever see
blue skies or the greenest grass
blood stains drips and guts
commercialised barbarians
the most vulgar of nuts
it is ludicrous behaviour
just a hopeless attitude
callous indiscretions
and they all are bloody rude
Talking to vets and specialists
lies are everywhere
regulation statistics
all thats in the air
indifference and unconcern
inertia and apathy
they say it doesnt happen
so much, complacency
these animals are suffering
shuddering they be
frightened being electro jabbed
anyone can see
these are really babies
taking the had knocks
terrible reputations
and, yes added shocks
euthanasia they say
is quick death afterall
that is if you want to die
but babies hear them call
out over the radio expletives
from the men
the blood bath they are suffering
wondering really when
many beings are thoroughbreds
branded such as we see
no protection nothing
it could be the end of me
No body protecting us
nobody at all
we are being humiliated
and bashed against the wall
soaked in other victims blood and guts
a gruesome sight
this is what they do to us
and of course it isnt right.
a three year investigation
the racing industry
the corporate world
the Government
the richer yea we see
decked out in their fancy suits
but they all fail to see
what becomes of us young souls
who run for all our worth
whipped within an inch of life
across mother earth
and all end up in MERAMISTq
a camp of such repute
many many thoroughbreds
who have won a pile of loot
but all that is disregarded
its now our time to be
leaving for the next world
goodbye humanity
what we know about you cruel sods
haughty as can be
shameless arseoles everyone
rich or poor we see
We , see your bad side
Yes men everywhere
rules and regulations
Nobody to care
we are here to just be kicked
beaten prodded we
are slaves and all the betting people
are as bad, you see
and that includes the hoi poi loi
who buy our mince and be
guilty knowing laws are broken
nobody actually cares
Horse Racing offialdom
None of them hear our prayers
They are racketeers the lot of them
getting their cut and they
deny what we are going through
every BLOODY day
suffering great agony
they kick they prod they slap
nothing is legitimate
its one shit hole of crap
4000 horses being killed
at least who shouldnt be
we ought to all be re -homed
to a life of luxury
but all the while the carnivores
are chomping on our friends
to these murdering scumbag
dead flesh mobsters
well it never ends.
You can do something stop gambling no sweepstakes in the office
sign as many petitions
and never watch racing on the box
