before<br \/>\nthey would naturally die<br \/>\nWas to me close to being insane.<\/p>\n<p>To breed them to grow fast<br \/>\nbut die even sooner was something<br \/>\nI just could&#8217;t see<br \/>\nAnd to introduce genes<br \/>\nfrom beings so distant<br \/>\nI tell you,it just sickened me<\/p>\n<p>It Was far far beyond what my brain<br \/>\ncould consider<br \/>\nI knew rocket science for me<br \/>\nwas far in the distance<br \/>\nfor I was still moved by<br \/>\nthe innocent flower<br \/>\nand the bee<\/p>\n<p>Then the big super hyper stores<br \/>\nopened their doors huge sheds<br

this road<br \/>\nBut the banksters were in it,<br \/>\nand they<br \/>\nTalked of scale, margins, profits, stakeholders you name it<br \/>\nand we all did pay<\/p>\n<p>But the animals<br \/>\nthey got the butt end<br \/>\nthe consumers<br \/>\nthey paid highly too<br \/>\nThe workers they sufferred<br \/>\nsome anguish for certain<br \/>\nand became<br \/>\nan unhappy crew.<\/p>\n<p>What could the sheds do<br \/>\nto make this all happen<br \/>\nCows out in fields, no! no way!<br \/>\nGrass fed, wild plants fed, never again<br \/>\nThe sun on their backs<br \/>\nNot Today.<\/p>\n<p>What
