Your favorite AR/vegan/vegetarian lines from songs?

[SiNa94]

So... today I was listening to Me First and the Gimme Gimmies... a cover band... and noticed that they tagged this onto the end of their "I Want You to Want Me" cover:

 

"She don't eat bacon

(she'd never kill a sweet little innocent piggy to get bacon)

She's one of them vay-guns

(she's one of those sweet-lovin', sweet-talkin', loveable vay-guns)

And that's alright!"

 

What are some of your favorite lines from songs? Even if it is only a personal interpretation that makes them AR/vegan-related...

[xdarthveganx]

Generations of oppression, one generation will break this chain - Earth Crisis.

[Odidnetne]

Generations of oppression, one generation will break this chain - Earth Crisis.

 

That's hot.

[SiNa94]

Generations of oppression, one generation will break this chain - Earth Crisis.

 

We have to hope so... and hopefully it's this one.

 

Love your sig too... didn't know there was a label for my philosophy until I read it. I've lost friends because of my beliefs. Of course, I've also seen more than my share of people drink themselves to death on top of other things. I pick my battles...

This is a good one by The Queers. Makes me laugh.

 

Acting like you care about

Some stupid fucking cow,

You fucking vegan.

Your PC attitude,

It doesn't matter anyhow,

You fucking vegan.

 

You're a stupid fucking, stupid fucking

Stupid fucking, stupid fucking vegan.

You're a stupid fucking, stupid fucking

Stupid fucking, stupid fucking vegan.

Vegan, vegan stupid fucking vegan.

 

You always pray to Jah when you smoke

Your fucking pot - you fucking vegan.

You like the Grateful Dead

And think they're very hot,

You fucking vegan.

 

You're a stupid fucking, stupid fucking

Stupid fucking, stupid fucking vegan.

You're a stupid fucking, stupid fucking

Stupid fucking, stupid fucking vegan.

Vegan, vegan stupid fucking vegan.

 

You're a stupid fucking, stupid fucking

Stupid fucking, stupid fucking vegan.

You're a stupid fucking, stupid fucking

Stupid fucking, stupid fucking vegan.

 

Your girlfriend doesn't shave her legs or armpits anymore,

You fucking vegan.

I really hate your lifestyle

You're just a fucking bore,

You fucking vegan.

 

You're a stupid fucking, stupid fucking

Stupid fucking, stupid fucking vegan.

You're a stupid fucking, stupid fucking

Stupid fucking, stupid fucking vegan.

Vegan, vegan stupid fucking vegan.

You're welcome. Now, if I could just find the lyrics to "Eat a Vegan" by American Nightmare.

[SiNa94]

 

What have I started?

 

Haha...

[cubby2112]

From Funker Vogt:

 

The character which we need

They live all in common

And without self-interest

But we kill them to get the cash

Don't you think that is trash?

 

We respect the cunning of a fox

But our weekend trip is it's death

We hunt them with happiness

And they never get away

 

We would like to have

Nine lives of a cat

But we run it over - just once

 

We envy the birds

They are free what we wish to be

...What we wish to be

But we shoot at them

...We shoot at them

 

We love them and respect them

We hunt them and we shoot them

We keep them and we feed them

We hunt them and we kill them

 

Man is just a sly animal

Compare him with all others

And you will see, he couldn't be a friend

[Last of the Sane]

The Vandals - Tastes Like Chicken

"How does it make you feel to take a life for just one meal?"

 

Conflict - Meat means Murder

"Now your at the table, sitting, grinning

Sitting there eating you never realise the filling

Its served upon a sterile plate you dont think of killing

The furthest your brain takes you, is it for frying or for grilling?

You moan about the seal cull, about the whale slaughter

But does it really matter wheather it lives on land or water?

You've never had a fur coat, you think is crule to the mink

Well How about the cow, pig or sheep dont they make you think?

Since the day that you were born you've never been told the missing link

 

Yet still there queuing and still there viewing

Sawing out limbs just right for stewing

Carcass piled up in a heep

Sort juicy chunks from freezers deep

Well cant you see the juice is blood

From new throats red rivers flood

Your blood, Their blood, serves the same. "

Seven Generations - "No Other Way"

 

The dawn of the apocalypse is upon us. To save our dying world, we have one last chance. Abandon this society and its mindless consumption. Set to fire everything that kills our mother earth. Force open the eyes of the blind. Make them see our hideous crimes. Make them see a change must be made. Make them see there is no other way. VEGAN REVOLUTION.

Gebet an den Planet (Thomas D)

 

Es tut mit leid Tier denn sie mögen dich so sehr

Sie wollen alles von dir und am Liebsten noch mehr

Deine Haut ist ihre Kleidung

Dein Fleisch ist ihr Essen

Dein Geist ist vergessen

 

Bei dem Versuch das Recht auf Leben

In Gesetze zu verpacken

Haben sie bei dir Tier einige Sätze weggelassen

Deine Schreie zu erhören wurde leider verpasst

Weil du für Menschen

Keine verständliche Stimme hast

Erheb ich meine Stimme für dich

Es scheint noch immer vonnöten

Ihr erinnert euch (nicht) – du sollst nicht töten

Denn du kriegst was du gibst

Bist was du isst

Weißt was das heißt

Alles kommt zurück – alles kommt zurück

 

Hier ist mein Gebet an diesen Planeten

Der Versuch zu beschreiben was mir nahe geht

Solang sich diese Welt noch dreht werdet ihr meine Stimme hören

Und immer wieder Menschen treffen

Die aufs Leben schwören

Wir alle beten für diesen Planeten

Um jeden neuen Tag in Hoffnung zu begegnen

Und unser Licht durchbricht die Nacht

In dem Glauben daran

Dies ist die dunkelste Stunde

Vor dem Sonnenaufgang

 

Es tut mir leid Natur

Denn deine Erben erheben sich gegen dich

Und erledigen dich

Du warst vollkommen in Vielfalt

Und mit allem im Einklang

Bis der Mensch mit Gewalt in dich eindrang

 

All deine Schätze die am Anfang allen gut vertraut

Sie wichen Plätzen die auf Tränen und Blut gebaut

Ich seh die Wunden blinder Wut

Auf deiner Haut entstehen

Obwohl doch die die dich verletzen

Damit gegen sich gehen

 

Und dennoch liegt etwas heiliges in deiner Luft

An besonderen Plätzen ein besonderer Duft

Der mir sagt dass jeder Weg so wichtig ist

Wie jeder Fluss

Und jeder Baum, jeder Berg

Dort steht wo er muss

 

Sie handeln wider ihrer Sinnen

Als wären sie blind

Wenn ihre Ziele nicht im Einklang

Mit den deinen sind

 

Und selbst um dich Mensch tut es mir leid

Denn du quälst dich selbst die meiste Zeit

Im Krieg mit deinem Ego stehst du neben dir

Ewig die Frage verdrängend weswegen leben wir

 

Du findest keinen Frieden hier

Wirst zum seelenlosen Wanderer

Und dein Lebenskampf geht auf Kosten anderer

Verfolg in Liebe all die Ziele die du gut nennst

Doch gehe nie gegen dein eigenes Blut Mensch

 

Denn du irrst wenn du denkst

Hier steht jeder für sich

Was gegen uns geht geht gegen dich

An jedem Start ist ’ne Ziellinie

Und wir sind alle gleich weit

Und aus einer Familie

Um die Tests zu bestehn

Und um weiter zu gehn

Muss jeder sein Ego in Demut zurück nehmen

 

Hier ist mein Gebet an diesen Planeten

Der Versuch zu beschreiben was mir nahe geht

Solang sich diese Welt noch dreht werdet ihr meine Stimme hören

Und immer wieder Menschen treffen

Die aufs Leben schwören

Wir alle beten für diesen Planeten

Um jeden neuen Tag in Hoffnung zu begegnen

Und unser Licht durchbricht die Nacht

In dem Glauben daran

Dies ist die dunkelste Stunde

Vor dem Sonnenaufgang

My band is opening for them later this semester.

Well kick em in the head, for being dumb mf'ers! Even though I do like their music and am jealous that you are playing with them.

[pelicanAndrew]

They just write stuff like that to fuck with people. I mean even their name was to piss off the so called "art fag" community of where they originated.

 

I could've sworn that even one of them was vegan. Maybe not.

[michaelhobson]

Hm, i wouldn't doubt it. Dirty punkers are always saying stuff just to piss people off. I would never do a thing like that.

A vegetarian, no goat or ham

Or chicken or turkey or hamburger

Boogie Down Productions - My Philosophy

[robert]

Anyone know this Vegan Boy Band ?

 

http://www.veganbodybuilding.com/images/ship/ship12.jpg

 

 

I hear they have some pretty sweet lyrics!

 

Have any of you listened to the soundtrack to my Vegan Fitness Built Naturally DVD? Well, we don't have a separate soundtrack disc, but in general, listened to the songs? 90% of them were from Vegan Artists and there is some sweet music there!

 

Cheryl Hill is one of my favorites:

 

www.cherylhill.com

 

Farewell Redemption is another great one:

 

www.farewellredemption.com I think is the link.

 

All of them have their contact info in the credits of the DVD. Give it a listen, some great lyrics in there!

 

Cheryl even has some really specific Animal Rights songs with hardcore lyrics.

[ronnie kray]

LOL! you guys really do look like a boy band!

 

more from Boogie Down Productions, from the song titled "BEEF":

 

"Let us begin now with the cow

The way it gets to your plate and how

The cow doesn't grow fast enough for man

So through his greed he makes a faster plan

He has drugs to make the cow grow quicker

Through the stress the cow gets sicker

Twenty-one different drugs are pumped

Into the cow in one big lump

So just before it dies, it cries

In the slaughterhouse full of germs and flies

Off with the head, they pack it, drain it, and cart it

And there it is, in your local supermarket

Red and bloody, a corpse, neatly packed"
