Its very regretful
\nThe untimely delay
\nThe gross inefficiency
\nAnd there is no way
\nLive exports should continue
\nIts terribly wrong
\nAnd very young calves
\nJust do not belong<\/p>\n
Picked up in Scotland
\nOn thursday night
\nShipped down to Ramsgate
\nThat can’t be right
\nThe ship didnt sail
\nSo a lairage was found
\nUnloaded and loaded
\nThey were Calais bound
\nBut again not till midnight
\nDid the joline sail
\nWhich limped into Calais
\nAnd again it did fail<\/p>\n
Those lamenting animals
\nAt 2.30 they
\nGot in to Calais
\nHaving taken all day
\nWailing and weeping
\nEach Vulnerable soul
\nIn states that were wretched
\nAll that rigmarole<\/p>\n
Travelling knowingly
\nIts gets you down
\nBut baby animals
\nWe go to town
\nWith primates for zoo’s
\nBut young baby cows
\nWe torture them and frighten them
\nFor hours and hours<\/p>\n
Because its all about money
\nAll about veal
\nAbout fattening females
\nFor the Middle East deal
\nProfit and margin and thats how we are
\nAnd the poor baby animals
\nWe pummel and scar<\/p>\n
That vessel took too long
\nWhatever the cause
\nAt the end of a journey
\nA four hour pause
\nOut from Calais imagine that please
\nWhen they were nearing breakpoint
\nAnd down on their knees<\/p>\n
We should becashamed about live exports
\nToday
\nIts evil and wrong
\nWe should not make them pay
\nWith their health with their breath
\nWith their fearful embrace
\nAnd With extended passage
\nNo its a disgrace<\/p>\n
DEFRA The grey suits
\nThe form scribing mob
\nThe farmers the meat trade
\nYes
\nwe do sob
\nWe share all that anger
\nWe feel all their pain
\nAnd these terrible
\nCrossings
\nshould not happen again<\/p>\n
LIVE EXPORTS Sap life force
\nIts cruelty, we
\nAs humane human beings
\nWe really must see
\nMust feel in our gut
\nAnd realise how
\nLive shipments must cease
\nthey have to stop now<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
