Mining agriculture and construction
\nThats what China really does around here
\nZimbabwe really needs inward investment
\nAnd the local people really they are clear
\nThey need some money in their pots to live on
\nAnd Chinese workers have a lot of cash
\nAfrica has wild animals the Chinese like to eat them
\nThe locals go and hunt yea in a flash<\/p>\n
Endangered tortoise, pythons even leopards
\nPangolin and lion bones can earn big dough
\nVillage dogs are always on the menu
\nIn Chinese Restaurants as most of us know <\/p>\n
The way they are caught and killed is so repulsive
\nThe expectation running high today
\nThere has to be more discipline
\nFor this is not the way
\nPeople will cave in<\/p>\n
It’s forbidden under law to kill some of them
\nBut where there’s money what can people do
\nThere cannot be a compromise the animals must be
\nProtected they are iconic and need to now be free<\/p>\n
It’s all dead pan and poker faced
\nUnresponsive to
\nThe suffering of animals
\nWhat should the locals do<\/p>\n
The ugliness the unsightliness, the hideosity
\nThe shocking use of endangered species
\nIt’s all such larceny
\nIt’s villainous destruction
\nTo blemish and to spoil
\nTo boil these little tortoises
\nJust tip them into oil<\/p>\n
It’s bad taste and unrefinement
\nIt’s barbaric in a way
\nAfrica doesn’t need this stuff
\nNot now not any day<\/p>\n
Sending workers back home
\nFor the evil they do here
\nDoesn’t do Zimababwe good
\nIt just blows Into fear<\/p>\n
Hostility and antagonism
\nAnd animosity
\nPeople become aggressive
\nAnd really unfriendly<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
