The roar of the kings and the queens
\nOn the prowl
\nAre we about to throw in the towel
\nLet these corrupt people sell
\nOut those souls
\nThe iconic wild ones
\nWith outstanding roles<\/p>\n
The lions are the voice
\nOf Africa, they
\nTheir habitat tragically frittered away
\nCorruption is rife
\nIt’s a truly sad tale
\nDo we Stand by and weep
\nOr fight tooth and nail<\/p>\n
Trafalgar Square
\nNelsons viewpoint abroad
\nThe fountains the
\nPortico’s
\nJustly reward
\nThe placards the voices
\nThe tumultuous sound
\nOf those against canned hunting
\nWho today found<\/p>\n
A cordial welcome
\nAnd a honest desire
\nTo roar with the lions
\nTo set hearts on fire
\nTheir bloodstock their caste
\nTheir nobility
\nBeing lost to the world
\nAnd the great Lion family<\/p>\n
The scurrilous evil
\nThe canned hunting tribe
\nThe most selfish farmers
\nWho wouldst imbibe
\nThe plains now of Africa
\nThe bush where once we
\nWere amazed by the kings
\nLiving proud living free<\/p>\n
But now what we have are camps
\nIn the sun
\nHumanised wild lions
\nNot given to run
\nCaged so unnaturally
\nPetted by us
\nFed only by humans
\nTourists by the bus
\nLoad come to stay
\nCome to watch come to see
\nThe canned hunting jaunts
\nWhich now apparently<\/p>\n
Are the big earners
\nWhere the margins are high
\nWhere they sacrifice Lions
\nWhere the African sky
\nBeams down from above
\nWhere corruption is rife
\nDrugged up to the eyeballs
\nThe kings lose their life
\nShot off of the back
\nOf a truck
\nWhat the fuck
\nlamb to the slaughter
\nThis business does suck<\/p>\n
The rich the nobility
\nCome from afar
\nFor a guarantee
\nOf a kill and they are
\nLet out of their cage
\nAnd left out to dry
\nSlaughtered like rats
\nIf you are wondering why
\nBecause they make money
\nIt’s win win they say
\nThe hunters are happy
\nYou bet it does pay<\/p>\n
The farmers are happy
\nThe government too
\nTrophies are shipped back
\nThe skeletons woo
\nThe far eastern merchants
\nTraditionally
\nAre sold tiger cake
\nMade of Lion actually
\nIt’s all a big con
\nThat’s what they do
\nDeceit all along
\nThe chain
\nIt is true<\/p>\n
Monkey and turtle
\nAnd lion bones become
\ntiger cake
\nIt’s a fake
\nIt has become
\nA huge money earner
\nThe king has to die
\nThe shysters are at it
\nAnd now you know why<\/p>\n
From the start to the finish
\nThe falseness is there
\nPathological liars
\nUntruths everywhere
\nSo much improbity
\nAnd hypocrisy
\nTwo faced and treacherous
\nIt has to be<\/p>\n
The lion once was king
\nGreat numbers roamed free
\nWith habitats lost
\nIt just had to be
\nThe corruption ran rife
\nAnd the great lion were lost
\nDuped out of existence
\nAnd this is the cost
\nAfrica’s suffering
\nThe kings are too
\nThe poachers are at it
\nThe canned hunters view
\nIs down the rifle sight
\nOff the back of a truck
\nWith drugged up toothless Lions
\nNow Running amok<\/p>\n
Peter’s new video
\nBrings it to bear
\nThe protestors came
\nOf course they did share
\nTheir heartfelt encouragement
\nAnd they did roar
\nAt the top of their voices
\nFor they were sure
\nAfrica heard them
\nAfrica sighed
\nAs for the hunters
\nThere’s no place to hide
\nYou dastardly morons
\nYou ugly fools
\nIn the great scheme of things
\nYou now break all the rules<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
