To tell you the truth
\nTo take on the royals
\nAnd of course what they say
\nThey will call you outspoken
\nAll along the way<\/p>\n
If you stand up, for animal rights
\nAnd have an animal then in your sights
\nHunting it for, whatever reason
\nWhether it’s in or out of the season<\/p>\n
There is a conflict in your soul
\nYou are not in complete control
\nCrocodiles have a right to life
\nNot messed up with our human strife<\/p>\n
Zen in the art of being straight
\nI also don’t think that it is great
\nFor royalty to go on about
\nHarming animals and leaving doubt<\/p>\n
In anybody’s mind out there
\nYou either support or don’t
\nIt’s fair
\nFor Morrisey or others too
\nMake their point sir about you<\/p>\n
The paper trail in Oz appears
\nTo talk up your participation fears
\nStanding over a crocodile
\nWhich is really hard to reconcile<\/p>\n
One moment sir you make your stand
\nAnd then you show another hand
\nThis isn’t honesty any more
\nIt leaves bad faith of that I am sure<\/p>\n
In your position you ought to be
\nLighting a beacon for humanity
\nCaring for animals seeing them through
\nNot hunting them like you, appear to do<\/p>\n
As for the singer what he maintains
\nIs respect and true caring avoiding the chains
\nAnd the terrible aspects of unkindness, we
\nShow to the animals disrespectfully<\/p>\n
The royals should be making it clear far and wide
\nHunting and poaching comes from inside
\nAnd we should protect other species on earth
\nAnd walk a straight road for it has greater worth<\/p>\n
It takes some courage to say what he feels
\nRespect is the outcome and it reveals
\nregard for whoever we now might say
\nAnd On no account should we be making them pay<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
