Civilized Man Lyrics

    There's a war in the day no peace at night
    There's blood on the hands of man yet we don't symathize
    The meateater kills the cows they just depersonalize to justify
    Their own lust as the helpless die
    And it's ironic how we cry for world peace
    But the violence won't decrease unless our murders cease
    So understand in the slaughter-house who's the beast
    And I demand that the innocent be released
    Well I've tried the best I can
    I've tried to understand
    Civilized man so-called civilized man
    Yes I've tried the best I can
    But who can understand
    Civilized man?
    Guilt free so-called morality
    Fallacy
    The 4 foods group just western medicine quackery
    (meat would be) $35 a pound but our taxes subsidize
    As 35 million starve as we gormandize
    The grains that could feed the world go to their industry
    To fatten up the catle for death and I protest
    Rain forests once here kiss goodbye the biosphere ozone nightmare
    Just see the people don't even care!
    Guilt free we overlooked the blood and brutality
    And the TV propaganda covers heinous reality
    A plea to the people of this land to do
    What they can with hope for a civilized man
