We live here
\nWe were born here
\nWe are the kings it’s true
\nYou have cut down all our jungle
\nSo what are we to do?<\/p>\n
Go away and die somewhere
\nIs that your little game
\nAfrica is Lion country
\nIt’s always been the same
\nBut now the men with cattle
\nMove in and take away
\nOur jungle and our habitat
\nAnd fill our space with prey<\/p>\n
But it’s not prey for us alas
\nIt’s money in your bank
\nBeef we feel we need too
\nOur situations rank
\nAre we to slink off somewhere
\nAnd starve is that the best
\nThing for us to be doing
\nSomething we detest<\/p>\n
But now of course there is conflict
\nAs we have no place to go
\nSo the farmers have started shooting us
\nFew out there want to know
\nThere are some who fight our corner
\nBut money once again
\nSeems to be the problem
\nIt seems your worlds insane<\/p>\n
The great big corporations
\nHave torn down all The trees
\nThey employ men now to shoot us down
\nWe can feel the squeeze
\nCattle stations everywhere
\nIt doesn’t make sense at all
\nIt’s money money money
\nThat’s the stuff that now does rule<\/p>\n
We are the kings of nothing
\nNo cover any more
\nConcrete roads to walk on
\nAnd seemingly a war
\nIt isn’t of our making
\nAfrica was our place
\nBut now we are being sacrificed
\nWhich is a big disgrace<\/p>\n
Everything is farming now
\nTrophies yes galore
\nCanned hunting for the bunting
\nIt’s a kill zone more and more
\nThe natural world is reeling
\nUs animals seemingly
\nAre now all passed our sell by date
\nAnd can be no longer free<\/p>\n
Africa must understand
\nThe workings of the wild
\nAs each of us die out my friends
\nAnd everywhere is defiled
\nAnd your concrete roads
\nReach everywhere
\nAll you are going to see
\nIs desolation and killing
\nAnd how can that ever be<\/p>\n
A solution money grabbing fools
\nMurdering us all
\nThe wild ones and the farmed ones
\nAll part of your haul
\nWe will just be digital
\nPlayed out on super screens
\nProgrammed along with most of you
\nAnd Governed by machines<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
