The film is a good one
\nAnd the fearlessness shown
\nON booking a place
\nWith canned hunting
\nFull blown<\/p>\n
To have the audacity
\nThe boldness the strain
\nTo partner the drama
\nAnd really to gain<\/p>\n
An insight directly
\nOn the canned hunting clan
\nWhere people who want to
\nexperience can<\/p>\n
But won’t make the time
\nTo stalk and to hunt
\nAnd so want that kill
\nAs a guaranteed punt<\/p>\n
They want a package deal
\nAll to their own
\nAnd thats what some supply
\nIf you are hunting alone<\/p>\n
A phone call away your money
\nBuys all
\nFrom arriving, to killing
\nTo leaving long haul<\/p>\n
Its all done and dusted
\nThe taxidermy
\nAll the forms
\nand the paperwork
\nReally thats key<\/p>\n
From the first contact
\nThe film crew followed
\nThe realisation of how
\nEasy it is to murder an animal
\nIts all on offer right now<\/p>\n
Nothings forgotten
\nApart from compassion
\nThat doesn’t get a look in
\nIts all about money
\nI know that sounds funny
\nBut really its one dreadful sin<\/p>\n
Deadly efficient the animals
\nAre dead meat, thats what its about
\nAnd Brand South Africa is feeling the pinch
\nAs of course now its all coming out<\/p>\n
captive bred Lions commercially bred
\nIts their purpose in life just to be shot dead
\nIf it wasn’t for psychopaths running the show
\nHunters would just have no place to go<\/p>\n
Its all about trophies a fine scar free face
\nA long flowing mane all over the place
\nMounted up on some trophy wall
\nMade to look great
\nThis poor soul was farmed
\nAt an alarming rate<\/p>\n
Taken from its mother
\nAt 3 weeks may be
\nAnd looked after by volunteers
\nWho come to see<\/p>\n
Take them to bed with them
\nCuddle them so
\nAnd all through their young lives
\nThe humans they know<\/p>\n
When the order comes through
\nAnd the hunter arrives
\nSome of them shoot like
\nA chimpanzee drives <\/p>\n
They can’t see the target
\nAnd cannot therefore
\nExpect to hit a lion
\nCharging at them
\nWhats more<\/p>\n
The king of the jungle
\nGunned down like some rat
\nGroomed for destruction
\nThats where they were at<\/p>\n
We look at the set up
\nThe lions on the bait
\nTake aim and fire
\nNo need to wait<\/p>\n
This majestic soul
\nEnds its days in this way
\nNot necessarily hit by the hunter
\nBut he did pay<\/p>\n
So he takes the trophy
\nHe did his thing
\nWith his great mastery
\nHe shot the king<\/p>\n
So its all over
\nHe gets the head
\nThe bones go to China
\nAnother lion dead<\/p>\n
Do all the paperwork
\nShake hands and go
\nCanned hunting thats it
\nAnd it does grow<\/p>\n
Then what we see
\nShows a darkness plain sight
\nThe farmer’s concern
\nThat all is not right<\/p>\n
And tells our man directly
\nIf you came to be
\nA spy in the ring
\nI will kill, you will be<\/p>\n
As dead as a dodo
\nThat is for sure
\nGet out of here now
\nOr theres going to be war<\/p>\n
With his cover blown
\nAnd the vituperate stance
\nHe has now got to go
\nNot leave things to chance<\/p>\n
He could not have pulled any trigger
\nAt all
\nNot a innocent Lion up against
\nEvery wall
\nImaginable really its criminal stuff
\nAnd for those hunters doing it
\nThey ought feel rough<\/p>\n
Petted and pampered and caged
\nAll their lives
\nDrugged up to the eyeballs
\nNothing survives<\/p>\n
The vile wretched tirade
\nThese managing scum
\nShow their true colours
\nAnd boy they have some<\/p>\n
South Africa says it is legally fine
\nAcceptable and authorised
\nRight down the line
\nEveryones passing the proverbial buck
\nAnd the hunters and the farmers
\nThey don’t give a fcuk<\/p>\n
And what is the future
\nWhat we have to do
\nIs carry on carrying on
\nFor what is on view<\/p>\n
Is complete brutality
\nJust nothing more
\nThey all have their fingers
\nIn the pie
\nThats for sure<\/p>\n
Not in my lifetime
\nCan I see a change
\nThe danger spreads every where
\nIt seems real strange<\/p>\n
How one group can see it
\nAs perfectly good
\nAnd another is mortified
\nEven thinking they could<\/p>\n
I cant really see any light up ahead
\nPredator breeding
\nHas apparently led
\nAway from an ethic
\nThat ought to be there
\nTo a great big taboo
\nbased around true despair.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
