Amusement for the audience
\nThose who come to see
\nAn ungulate taken Apart
\nWith what is infamy
\nAnimal abuse
\nFrom those who went to school
\nAnd learned their craft
\nOf fighting
\nOn vileness and with gall
\nThey were bloodied
\nin the family
\nOthers went before
\nDressed it up as valiant
\nWhere boys and girls could pour
\nOver all the tactics
\nNeeded to fight the BULL
\nAnd increase entertainment
\nTo really feel that pull<\/p>\n
Learning to survive in the arena
\nRemaining fit and strong
\n70 schools surviving
\nWhere students still belong
\nMostlY from Middle class families
\nLearning the tricks of the trade
\nIt is a kind of brainwashing
\nBy bull fighters who have displayed
\nTheir art as they call it
\nOut in the arena
\nThe whole cuadrilla and more
\nLearning to test and honour the bull
\nAnd to leave it flat dead on the floor
\nThe roar of the crowd
\nAnd the demons engaged
\nThe torture and goading
\nAs the bull is enraged<\/p>\n
Colourful exciting history
\nSighs
\nAs bull after bull
\nBefore them all dies
\nRunning out from a dark place
\nInto the light
\nWith the roar of the crowd
\nIt\u2019s prepared not to fight
\nIt\u2019s eyes and it\u2019s horns and it\u2019s legs
\nDoctored So
\nIt\u2019s balance it\u2019s sight it\u2019s hearing
\nThe flow
\nIs cut off the poor soul frightened as hell
\nEnters the arena
\nPart of the big sell
\nThe Whole caudrilla clad in fancy silk
\nCarrying weaponry proceed to milk
\nThe crowd with a series of abusive turns
\nStabbings and goading excitement it churns
\nThe atmosphere charged All the blood guts and snot
\nThis the charade That some Folk like a lot<\/p>\n
The anger the price they Inevitably pay
\nTo watch bull after bull Die in a way
\nThat is bold and supreme
\nSlayed on the spot
\nIn their face as they scream
\nLot after lot
\nThe bloodshed the carnage The combat the war
\nPut to the sword like never before
\nDecimate Scupper assassinate
\nWork on the misery, annihilate
\nFinish off fall on ones Bloody great sword
\nWhat you don\u2019t want is anyone bored
\nEating their ice creams children and all
\nIt\u2019s entertainment, and when they fall
\nDown their big eyes swollen with blood
\nThey snort and they realise in a blood flood
\nLeaking all over weakening so
\nOnly then do they realise they better go<\/p>\n
Destroyed and demolished
\nTheir energy
\nFervour and relish
\nIntensity
\nCourage and fizz
\nInitiative broken
\nIt\u2019s what it is
\nSpain has just spoken
\nEmphatic denials
\nThat\u2019s what we hear
\nIt\u2019s contravening
\nThe challenge was clear
\nCall into question
\nWhat we have seen
\nRenounce and forswear
\nIt just was obscene<\/p>\n
And they were all taught how to do this
\nAs well
\nA school for killers
\nSome cannot spell
\nBut they stick in the knife Well
\nAnd wiggle it till
\nBloods spurts out in a fine crimson stream
\nWhen they kill the sad beast
\nWho has Learned how to scream<\/p>\n
Its all an illusion
\nSkullduggery
\nThe crowd are beguiled
\nIt\u2019s true treachery
\nDiddle and swizzle
\nIt\u2019s all sleight of hand
\nA sham a veneer from A murderous BAND
\nA SCHOOL OF UNTRUTHS
\nfabrication all round
\nInventions and fiction
\nYes pound after pound
\nMisrepresentation
\nA false set we see
\nA brave bull runs in
\nAnd is killed tragically<\/p>\n
No one heard his voice
\nAs he slumped on the ground
\nThen he was quiet
\nNot even one sound
\nSo much sensitivity
\nAnd unconcern
\nLearning these skills
\nTeaching what to discern<\/p>\n
Never a heartache
\nOr a nightmare
\nAnguish and angst
\nWas just everywhere
\nGloom and dejection
\nSolicitude
\nStrain stress and tension
\nIt all did exude<\/p>\n
Harrowed and bleeding
\nSo much dismay
\nIll used and maltreated
\nAt the end of the day
\nDowntrodden and victimised
\nLaden with woe
\nJust weeping buckets
\nAs we all know
\nOdious hateful
\nExecrable and cursed
\nIt\u2019s not entertainment
\nThere is nothing worse
\nDeplorable ghastly
\nIt makes me sick
\nWondering how these all Matador\u2019s tick<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
