lyrics

Melissa asks clever elevator questions designed to nudge a re-think
outside habitual orbit she hands out printer's ink

how's your health sez the turkey she sez
how's the earth sez the goat she sez
how're the farm animals today she sez and she sez

the hospital is visited less frequently when
your lunch comes not from critter sufferin
earth is fouled with feces methane released
hogs pollute the water table that needs to be leashed

calves interned where they cannot turn
and cows pigs ducks chickens birds fish rudely torn
outta their comfort zone outta their comfort zone
conscience seems absent animals on their own

and soil is blown away she sez and sky is sourly filled she sez
what goes around comes around sez she
what needs to stay inna ground she sez
is pumped and sold and burnt she sez

the way of thinking here she sez is somewhere below dysfunctional

seeing us selves as separate is fear at odds and so desperate
reason speaks interconnection the heart even more in that direction
proof truth proof truth
