Oh delicious fish, caught unwittingly in a fishermans net Oh lil egg, taken slyly from underneath your mothers warm nest To lie waiting in the cold refrigerator and then hot oven and batter Sheared, smeared, tasted, bruised and layered on bread and butter You fruits and berries plucked from trees and stems Leaves along with roots uprooted among gems glorious colours of cocoa, vanilla, coffee and tea clovers Dried and burnt to get aromas and flavors Oh butchers knife that kills and cuts meat out of live birds and animals Those shepherds shearing the warmth away to warm themselves Machines that crawl the land and the sea screeching and uprooting The fabric of life as it existed once upon a time is creaking Everything done for the pleasures of a human appetite and senses Trees uprooted to build homes, rivers dammed, oil burnt unscrupulously for those purposes In the name of progress, funds will leave no stone unturned Even get god particle in front to flirt with science of evil unperturbed This is the good, pious living off the earth in perfect harmony with the sad bad generous with no reality check
