Let Them Play II

Intro: We can be happy without meat.
There’s plenty of other things to eat.
No need to consume animal flesh –
Take veggie food – healthy and fresh!

1) What have they done that you slaughter them?
What harm they did that you’re killing them?

2) It is ignorance or what else you say?
Is it arrogance? Is that your way?
And where’s your heart… in all of this?

Refrain

Why can’t we leave animals to play,
birds to fly and fish to swim?
Let us try and a new world of eating will begin.

3) Or will you claim it’s nature’s flow,
And meat tastes good, and you can’t say no.

4) You mainly care for yourself alone –
You take the flesh and throw the bone.
And where’s your heart… in all of this?

Refrain

Why can’t we leave animals to play,
birds to fly and fish to swim?
Let us try and a new world of eating will begin.

Bridge

Remember, we don’t live in the jungle anymore.
Protecting – not killing – is what civilisation’s for.
As we want to live in happiness and peace
So do the animals – please let the killing cease.

Fruits, grains and veggies are a delicious treat –
Such a great variety of food to eat.
Let us try and a new world of eating will begin.

Yes, we must leave animals to play,
birds to fly and fish to swim...
Let us do it and a new world of eating will begin.

We can be happy without meat.
There’s plenty of other things to eat…
