Beef, what a relief |
|
When will this poisonous product cease? |
|
This is another public service announcement |
|
You can believe it, or you can doubt it |
|
Let us begin now with the cow |
|
The way it gets to your plate and how |
|
The cow doesn't grow fast enough for man |
|
So through his greed he makes a faster plan |
|
He has drugs to make the cow grow quicker |
|
Through the stress the cow gets sicker |
|
Twenty-one different drugs are pumped |
|
Into the cow in one big lump |
|
So just before it dies, it cries |
|
In the slaughterhouse full of germs and flies |
|
Off with the head, they pack it, drain it, and cart it |
|
And there it is, in your local supermarket |
|
Red and bloody, a corpse, neatly packed |
|
And you wonder about heart attacks? |
|
Come on now man let's be for real |
|
You are what you eat is the way i feel |
|
But, the food and drug administration |
|
Will tell you meat is the perfect combination |
|
See cows live under fear and stress |
|
Trying to think what's gonna happen next |
|
Fear and stress can become a part of you |
|
In your cells and blood, this is true |
|
So when the cow is killed, believe it |
|
You preserve those cells, you freeze it |
|
Thaw it out with the blood and season it |
|
Then you sit down and begin eatin it |
|
In your body, it's structure becomes your structure |
|
All the fear and stress of another |
|
Any drug is addictive by any name |
|
Even drugs in meat, they are the same |
|
The fda has america strung out |
|
On drugs in beef no doubt |
|
So if you think that what i say is a bunch of crock |
|
Tell yourself you're gonna try and stop |
|
Eatin meat and you'll see you can't compete |
|
It's the number one drug on the street |
|
Not crack, cause that was made for just black |
|
But brown beef, for all american teeth |
|
Life brings life and death brings death |
|
Keep on eatin the dead and what's left |
|
Absolute disease and negative |
|
Read the book 'how to eat to live' |
|
By elijah muhammad, it's a brown paperback |
|
For anybody, either white or black |
|
See how many cows must be pumped up fatter |
|
How many rats gotta fall in the batter |
|
How many chickens that eat shit you eat |
|
How much high blood pressure you get from pig feet |
|
See you'll consume, the fda could care less |
|
They'll sell you donkey meat and say it's |
|
Fresh! for nineteen-ninety, you suckers |
