\/>\nHow cetaceans, Neptunes angels<br \/>\nAnd exploitation came<br \/>\nTo be a case for the human race<br \/>\nNot prepared to take the blame<\/p>\n<p>They are a vulgar entity<br \/>\nTheir arrogance not unique<br \/>\nAmongst the commercial giants<br \/>\nIts the iconic that they seek<br \/>\nThe killer whale it attracted them<br \/>\nThey could take the market share<br \/>\nThey didnt have the where for all<br \/>\nBut corporates dont care<\/p>\n<p>They had no experience<br \/>\nAs ignorant as hell<br \/>\nHalf measures they were good at them<br \/>\nTalentless as well<br \/>\nBut they had lots of money<br \/>\nThe inspirational force<br \/>\nAnd banksters in and around them<br \/>\nHelping them to source<\/p>\n<p>Humanity NO not at all<br \/>\nIts the margin the bottom line<br \/>\nThe turnover the balance sheet<br \/>\nThat all sounds divine<br \/>\nThe shareholders the bOard of course<br \/>\nAnd the CEO<br \/>\nCetaceans could be profitable<br \/>\nThats all that they know<\/p>\n<p>SEA WORLD created its own world<br \/>\nIn the confines of its walls<br \/>\nWho needs oceans<br \/>\nWho needs live fish<br \/>\nWho needs life the fools<br \/>\nWho come on through the turnstiles<br \/>\nWho believe all that we say<br \/>\nThey are our bread and butter<br \/>\nOr our jello toast today<\/p>\n<p>We can make a killing<br \/>\nCatch these live souls we<br \/>\nCan rush ahead be kingpins<br \/>\nThe sea is where we be<br \/>\nWe are sea workd we are who<br \/>\nThe public wants to see<br \/>\nWe can show them the giants<br \/>\nAnd cover the cruelty<\/p>\n<p>We can use inventiveness<br \/>\nResourcefulness and more<br \/>\nWe have the bankers on our side<br \/>\nOur sophisticated core<br \/>\nIs a value that is natural<br \/>\nWe are big enough to fight<br \/>\nThere is no opposition<br \/>\nWe just exert our might<\/p>\n<p>We  can control these giants<br \/>\nNo one stands a chance<br \/>\nWe are giants among giants<br \/>\nWith the expertise to dance<\/p>\n<p>Right off of the table<br \/>\nThat is what they thought<br \/>\nWhat can animals do about it<br \/>\nAfter we have bought<br \/>\nThem the tanks the complete control<br \/>\nWe can rule the roost<br \/>\nProfits will leap accordingly<br \/>\nGive us that real big boost<\/p>\n<p>Their problem was their philosophy<br \/>\nTheir ethic wasnt there<br \/>\nThey were set up  to make money<br \/>\nNot set up  to care<br \/>\nThe bottom line is built on<br \/>\nArrogance from the start<br \/>\nThey are so robotic<br \/>\nThey do not possess a heart<\/p>\n<p>And were dealing with cetaceans<br \/>\nWhose hearts are clearly  there<br \/>\nThey are  very emotIonal<br \/>\nAnd understand despair<br \/>\nThey are much more developed<br \/>\nIn the linking and thinking game<br \/>\nThan we are than we could ever be<br \/>\nAnd so understand blame<\/p>\n<p>Capturing  snd breeding from<br \/>\nWild Orca&#8217;s has to be<br \/>\nA very dangerous pastime<br \/>\nAnd they ignorantly<br \/>\nCarried on with starry eyes<br \/>\nWatching the profits grow<br \/>\nAnd in the good years<br \/>\nForgot  the bad<br \/>\nAnd got on with the show<\/p>\n<p>The circus of lamentation<br \/>\nThe weeping wailing wall<br \/>\nThe discontent was not heaven sent<br \/>\nSo many tears did fall<br \/>\nSo many victims perished<br \/>\nDoleful woeful souls<br \/>\nWent to meet their maker<br \/>\nDespite all your controls<\/p>\n<p>Trainers also perished<br \/>\nOr were injured some were maimed<br \/>\nThe reason it was the trainers faults<br \/>\nLegally  they claimed<br \/>\nAnd so the victims lists did grow<br \/>\nCetaceans and humans too<br \/>\nAs the gracelessness expanded<br \/>\nThey were wondering what to do<\/p>\n<p>Among the true cetaceans<br \/>\nWas pessimism for they<br \/>\nHad become SEA WORLDS victims<br \/>\nDespairing all the way<br \/>\nInauspicious unpropitious<br \/>\nIll omened from the start<br \/>\nTortured just from captivity<br \/>\nThey didnt have the heart<\/p>\n<p>Life in tanks is awful<br \/>\nDosed up with pills and stuff<br \/>\nCetaceans are of all nations<br \/>\nAnd by now they have heard enough<br \/>\nThey were  suffering such torment<br \/>\nTheir indifference all could see<br \/>\nTheir dorsal fins and of course their skins<br \/>\nIt was easy to be<\/p>\n<p>Suffering at Sea World<br \/>\nHeld in a bad light<br \/>\nMissing our lovely families<br \/>\nAnd the ocean to take flight<br \/>\nIt was humiliation<br \/>\nAnd recently we know<br \/>\nTIlikum gave up the fight<br \/>\nAnd died to end the show<\/p>\n<p>The haughtiness the attitude<br \/>\nThe domineering bluster<br \/>\nThe disrespect they gave to us<br \/>\nThe shamlessness they muster<br \/>\nWe are all social creatures<br \/>\nFor us to be alone<br \/>\nIs cruelty personified<br \/>\nSadly the seeds you have sown<\/p>\n<p>Are really getting us no where<br \/>\nWe are lamenting about the sin<br \/>\nYou are really hostile to us<br \/>\nWe can never win<\/p>\n<p>And so the realization<br \/>\nIs each of us must die<br \/>\nTo get the public active<br \/>\nWhich of course is why<\/p>\n<p>Your doors should be closed now<br \/>\nYou are passed your sell by date<br \/>\nSEA WORLD its a worldwide boycott<br \/>\nThat will seal your fate<br \/>\nYou are a bunch of tossers<br \/>\nAs all cetaceans know<br \/>\nSo many have now perished<br \/>\nAs the numbers grow and grow<\/p>\n<p>P<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A giant corporation A transnational concern With myriad fingers In
