Greyhounds and their murky life due to some

They are gentle and lively
Passionate souls
Aerodynamic
With all the controls
Athletic and handsome
Intelligent too
Enslaved to regression
Thats what humans do

Money and profit
It’s a lucrative trade
Racing these great souls
On our shoulders laid
Archaic practices
Ignorant ways
Insensitive methods
Where cruelty pays

Self regulation
Where results are the thing
Doping and animal cruelty bring
Clouds to the industry
Live baiting too
Many said never
But 4 corners do
Expose what’s been happening
It is a sin
These are the trainers
That get dogs to win

It’s blown up in their faces
Sure they’ve made some dough
They have killed rabbits and pigs
Possums low,
And behold
It is what some do
That’s what owners want
Winners that is the view

Imagine the torture the vile
Wicked way
To be tied on a hook and be chased
Who can say
This is a sport fit for humans
To see
And for government backing
It just cannot be

These dogs need respect
Not lies from the few
Clearly there’s money and taxes
That do
Keep people sweet on this
Moronic sport
It’s vile and it’s cruel
And it’s all without thought

If you hear the trainers
All this is denied
But when a few cameras do get inside
That’s when it’s obvious what some
Now do
And engaged in live baiting
Well it’s proven too
Shut down those trainers
Seize all those hounds
Clearly it’s certain
They are doing the rounds
Murdering innocent animals they
Should be banned for life
Be kept away

They declare if the dogs
Are not winners then they
End up in fact with the RSPCA
Good breeding and training
That’s what it’s about
It’s all about money
That’s without a doubt

We should have moved on by now
From those who
Regress to the abyss
For clearly some do
Gambling is big business
Its a big draw
But it’s exploitation
That’s the big flaw
It’s become parasitic
The noble greyhound
Is truthfully one of
The most gentle around
It is athletic
It does love to run
But forcing the issue
Is not how it’s done
