the bull because we love him"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>We killed him because we loved him<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s the kind of love that I<br \/>\nCan never ever understand<br \/>\nWe watched that Elephant die<br \/>\n4 hours it took of misery<br \/>\nOf agony of pain<br \/>\nTheir psychopathic ugly minds<br \/>\nNo different than a drain<\/p>\n<p>Sharing out the bush meat<br \/>\nAmongst the locals who<br \/>\nWill all have meat inside their guts<br \/>\nThat is why they do<br \/>\nWhat they do the liars<br \/>\nSobbing there on screen<br \/>\nThey are a bunch of larcenists<br \/>\nTheir motives were obscene<\/p>\n<p>An old bull soon to lose his teeth<br \/>\nAnd starve don&#8217;t give me this<br \/>\nRespect is what we should offer<br \/>\nThey really take the piss<br \/>\nAnd it&#8217;s allowed and above board<br \/>\nTo take out souls for fun<br \/>\nNot one shot or two shots<br \/>\nBut loads of shots<br \/>\nFrom the fool behind the gun<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a sickness plain and simple<br \/>\nGuilty in my eyes<br \/>\nHe wants his children to see them in the wild<br \/>\nThat special prize<br \/>\nAnd bears down on a massive Bull<br \/>\nThis is his idea<br \/>\nHe killed him because he loved him<br \/>\nThe whipping boy it&#8217;s clear<\/p>\n<p>His reward the status<br \/>\nThe great white hunter who<br \/>\nCan down a massive elephant<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s what hunters do<br \/>\nThey are soulless to begin with<br \/>\nTheir heart lost long ago<br \/>\nFor them it&#8217;s just a muscle<br \/>\nThey are nothing but ego<\/p>\n<p>A vile excuse for humans<br \/>\nThis unlawfulness I see<br \/>\nA humbling confession<br \/>\nWhich does not play with me<br \/>\nThe contumacy is obvious<br \/>\nSuch a graceless attitude<br \/>\nPretending to be upset<br \/>\nA practice though so crude<\/p>\n<p>Explaining how they did it<br \/>\nBuilding up their case<br \/>\nNot a hint of guilt there<br \/>\nOr blame it&#8217;s about space<br \/>\nAnd the remaining Elephants<br \/>\nUnpardonable for me<br \/>\nOpportunism they played their cards<br \/>\nBased on improbity<\/p>\n<p>They all are good-for-nothing<br \/>\nDegenerates in fact<br \/>\nTheir principle is evil<br \/>\nAnd how we all react<br \/>\nTo what is their iniquity<br \/>\nIs raise them to the fore<br \/>\nMake TV shows about them<br \/>\nHunters in the raw<\/p>\n<p>They are punishers<br \/>\nThey always try<br \/>\nTo vindicate for they<br \/>\nHave so many excuses<br \/>\nWhy their victims had to pay<br \/>\nThe ultimate price<br \/>\nThe loss of life<br \/>\nSo they could have their fun<br \/>\nAnd so traduced the animals right<br \/>\nFor life under the sun<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s totally reprehensible<br \/>\n4 hours they took to kill<br \/>\nA majestic beast who at the very least<br \/>\nHad the power to will<br \/>\nIt had sired a lot of children<br \/>\nAnd would now be sorely missed<br \/>\nBy the matriarch and others<br \/>\nBut the hunters can&#8217;t resist<\/p>\n<p>Their chance to down an Elephant<br \/>\nFor the ivory and more<br \/>\nFor the kudos amongst the rest of them<br \/>\nAnd all that blood and gore<br \/>\nDo you think the other elephants<br \/>\nWill not pine and be aggrieved<br \/>\nBy the murder of their greatest friend<br \/>\nFor it will not have achieved<\/p>\n<p>Anything in their eyes<br \/>\nJust Another angry man<br \/>\nWith guns who come to claim a soul<br \/>\nI will never be a fan<br \/>\nOf the roguish vile destroyers<br \/>\nUnworthy to be called<br \/>\nAnything but evil<br \/>\nTheir arses should be hauled<\/p>\n<p>Into court and into jail<br \/>\nFor life that is my plea<br \/>\nDressed up in their camouflage<br \/>\nAnd letting us all see<br \/>\nThe tears how they belittle<br \/>\nThe tears the elephants lose<br \/>\nThe disdainful way of hunting<br \/>\nIt really is a ruse<\/p>\n<p>Despicable behaviour<br \/>\nHolier than thou<br \/>\nSuch an undervaluation<br \/>\nOf the majesty of now<br \/>\nInstead of veneration<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s a scornful way to be<br \/>\nCavalier and aweless<br \/>\nA rotter all can see<\/p>\n<p>For them it&#8217;s an obligation<br \/>\nAnd entitlement let&#8217;s say<br \/>\nThey have the guns and weaponry<br \/>\nAnd the stature so today<br \/>\nThey stalk and kill a master<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s their birthright to be seen<br \/>\nAscribable to hunting<br \/>\nEntitled to have been<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s as if they were angels<br \/>\nDonors to the cause<br \/>\nRedeemers  even rescuers<br \/>\nAnd they couldn&#8217;t pause<br \/>\nTo think it through<br \/>\nThey knew the path<br \/>\nAnd took it to be sure<br \/>\nThey killed him because they loved him<br \/>\nThat was their reason for<\/p>\n<p>Drawing up the malevolence<br \/>\nAnd firing off the steel<br \/>\nHitting this bold elder<br \/>\nMaking this soul feel<br \/>\nThe agony of dying<br \/>\nWas chivalrous and right<br \/>\nGiving up his chance of breath<br \/>\nAnd living in the light<\/p>\n<p>So with his massive body<br \/>\nHe could feed the local hordes<br \/>\nWho would come and carve his flesh and bones<br \/>\nUsing their rusty swords<br \/>\nHe could be the delicacy<br \/>\nThat all of them would need<br \/>\nAlthough he loved the life<br \/>\nAnd the herd<br \/>\nHe had to be seen to bleed<\/p>\n<p>The wonders of creation<br \/>\nWere lost today we saw<br \/>\nFear and consternation<br \/>\nAnd how some do ignore<br \/>\nHunters sick and tasteless<br \/>\nBoorish imbeciles<br \/>\nOdious and loathsome<br \/>\nThey clog up all my dials<\/p>\n<p>The wails of woe I am picking up on<br \/>\nFrom the remaining herd<br \/>\nTear shedding you can know it<br \/>\nAnd any spoken word<br \/>\nCannot describe the lamentable<br \/>\nSorrow that they feel<br \/>\nFor them no understanding<br \/>\nFor them just wholly real<\/p>\n<p>Again I go back fondly<br \/>\nTo the Bull who had to die<br \/>\nThe hunger so called is to me<br \/>\nA punter and each lie<br \/>\nHe told was really awful<br \/>\nHis excuses  clearly sick<br \/>\nI couldn&#8217;t feel the tenderness<br \/>\nJust incredibly thick<\/p>\n<p>How they can have the where for all<br \/>\nTo be licensed and to kill<br \/>\nAFRICA Your iconic beasts<br \/>\nCAn&#8217;t you hear that shrill<br \/>\nCry of Mother  Nature<br \/>\nAs she collects each soul<br \/>\nAnd the senselessness of all of this<br \/>\nThe need for to control<\/p>\n<p>The numbers we as human beings<br \/>\nSadly will never know<br \/>\nWhat was in the minds eye<br \/>\nOf the great Mother whose show<br \/>\nOf force was from the heavens<br \/>\nShe created all we see<br \/>\nAnd the mindlessness of man unkind<br \/>\nDestroys it
