Stop Killing Animals



When I find people killing animals
I feel they'll have turned cannibals
Then I want to faint, to crash and to fall
When I see carcasses hung on the meat stall

Slaughtering animals for food is inhuman
Hope all this ends, can someone tell me when ?
What happened to all the good hearted men
Don't tell me when no animals are left, that's when…

Animals have emotions and feelings just like us
When there's so much variety of food n spice,
Then what's the fuss
Now it's time to be human, compassionate, kind
Going vegetarian gives you enormous peace of mind

You know animals like us have feelings
They want to be just like us human beings
They too like to play, dance, create and sing
While the wounds of their killing is still healing
