Star Poultry Melbourne

This abbatoir in Melbourne
Came uder scrutiny
From Animal Rights
More and more frights
Reluctant seems to me

Hens done with egg laying
Should be given space
But instead are stunned
And their throats slit
Blood, all over the place

But due to secret filming
What actually happened here
hens were shackled upside down
And scalded to death
Its clear
Something very wicked
Was happening but they
When told about the incident
Simply got away

With explaining it was an error
And has been put right now
For me this was, more than regret
Really honestly how
Can this be allowed to happen
And if it wasnt for animal rights
in there taking pictures
Then ofcourse the

lights
go out
These hens were suffering
Terror an evil wrong
Laying eggs until they are spent
Then they don’t belong
On this earth or on any earth
Its time to stop the breath
Scalded just imagine that
Yes all boiled to death

The industry is evil
A disservice they pay
Chickens are intelligent
Why are they made to say
It really is a crying shame
That all this grief and woe
Is loaded onto the chickens
Who really suffer so

The angst and the discomfort
Imagine if you will
Its insidious behaviour
Yet its probably happening still
Behind closed doors no cameras
Each calamitous affair
Is absolutely carrying on
And most are unaware
