Have you ever heard a beagle cry
Howling in his pain?
Waiting for his coup de grace in his cage
Do you wonder when you're playing chess
Where your ivory king is from?
Can you see the elephant croaking in his blood?
Subdue the earth he said
But look what we have done
The pride of creation we've been
But what have we become
What would God do, it he was one of us
Would he stop the pain?
What would God do, if he was one of us
Would he light the flame?
Who sheds a tear for the crocodile
That you carry as a bag?
Does your mink coat still keep you warm
When you think about its fate?
It ain't just another protest song
