We sure have your favourite animals
Unhappy dolphins smile, as they slay
Cute chip-monks, with wise old faces
And foxes, that hide from man, all day
Dopey koalas oblivious
That a cuddle’s on its way
A pretty butterfly waves goodbye
Then off to eat, then kill, her pray
Yet, both wolves and boar, ought not to ignore
Their cousin’s fates, soon became clear
Dogs join the family unit, to help…
Get through, a billion pigs a year
Dolphin sings and dances, in the sunshine
Jellyfish recolonises, down in the dark
Octopus with nine brains, shaping nonagons, Nein!
Fuck me! Here comes baby shark
All the animals, come out to play
We show up, and they run away
To children, what else can we say —
But, either sorry! Or hurray!
We tried and tried, to change our ways
Told God to make us good, and prayed
Then tasked robots, to manage our day
But sorry, we must be on our way
Made laws, to try to restrain ourselves
Grew banks, to lend, and spend, our wealth
Intuitions, responsible for our health
But sorry, we don’t feel too great today
And soon we’ll finally be on our way
Poyekhali! Off we go, hurray!
To the heavens, without delay
And all the animals, came back out to play
It takes time to build allegiances
Form bonds, and agree to bunch
That’s only with your own species
For the rest, it’s time for lunch
