Taiji is about to begin
\nIts inhumanity again
\nA time when activists
\nAll around the world
\nCan feel that pain<\/p>\n
Their innocence
\nTheir community
\nThe activity that lives
\nThe pods their sociability
\nIts where every Dolphin gives<\/p>\n
Each other true compassion
\nAnd, a fondness for
\nThe company they keep
\nThe fellowship that they adore
\nSuch warmth and cordiality
\nThen suddenly it ends
\nTaiji creates its warpath
\nA town with the fewest friends<\/p>\n
One friend is Broome in Australia
\nThey are twinned now with Taiji
\nDespite the dolphin slaughter
\nDespite now how it be
\nThe cove that won an oscar
\nShowed the world their sin
\nHow they ravage how they savage
\nWhen September does begin<\/p>\n
Whole pods are then driven
\nFor selection to take place
\nWhole families are slaughtered
\nIts a complete disgrace
\nSome are then sold on
\nInto captivity to be
\nSlaves to corporations
\nCash cows instantly<\/p>\n
Broome I look at you
\nAnd I am dumfounded
\nSomeones lying
\nSomeone doesn’t care
\nYou are drawing down the evil
\nConsenting to the killing
\nTell me Broome your morality is where<\/p>\n
Surely you are duty bound
\nTo stop this
\nIts utter carnage
\nThoughtless to be sure
\nWhats Abbot doing
\nWhat the hells he thinking about
\nThe Japanese bombed Broome
\nA while before<\/p>\n
So pearl fishing supposedly
\nThey helped you
\nJapanese workers
\nAnd some of them they
\nAre slaughtering and murdering
\nThese dolphins
\nIts very hard for them to get away<\/p>\n
Perhaps we have to boycott Broome
\nDon’t buy your pearls
\nLet them know how upset we all are
\nIf it starts to hit them in their pocket
\nThat might wake them up
\nFor they are far<\/p>\n
Up themselves and cannot see the writing
\nOn the proverbial wall for it is there
\nThe world is getting fed up with their arrogance
\nAnd their cruelty which is causing much despair
\nTweet storms come and go its all over facebook
\nMarches sit ins protests everywhere
\nThe embassies can tell you its upsetting
\nAnd its growing crowds are coming
\nThey are aware<\/p>\n
I call on Broome to wake up from their slumber
\nListen to the people when they cry
\nGetting close to Taiji and the slaughter
\nIs poor judgement and it seems to underlie
\nIts best you think it through and ask the people
\nDo they want to align themselves in this way
\nWith pariahs killing dolphins who happen passed their shore
\nBecause if they do commercially they will pay<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
