Happy Animeal by Syqnys Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's the same thing everyday
I wish that I could find
A way to end this agony, this misery of mine
Don't wanna feel, don't wanna think, I Wish I didn't have a mind
I'm innocent of crime, yet I'm imprisoned; I'm confined
It's so crowded inmates keep bumping into me
I'd punch 'em but our captors cut my hands off me
I tried to bite their face, but they cut out all our teeth
I'll headbutt em cause they can't cut the head off me
Right? Shut up, go to sleep, lay my head down in the mud
Covered in this filth, in our excrement and blood
Next to a friend who died weathering the flood
Now he's a forgotten corpse, stepped on like a bug
To this melody of misery he shuts his weary eyes
The groans of suffering act as his nightly lullabies
In his stomach there's a pain, he clutches it and cries
He feels something explode inside his stomach then he dies
[Chorus](x2)
Smile for your Happy Meal
Torture it till madness, kill
The animal, no! animeal
The always empty, cannot feel
So smile for your happy meal
We'll eat until we've had our fill
Throw away the scraps
Now that's the deal
Have a happy meal
[Verse 2]
You didn't have it that bad
At least you had a friend
All I do is eat and drink for weeks and weeks on end
But they feed me via liquid, guess it's drink for weeks on end
In this teeny little pen that they keep me locked up in
When I lay down I can't even stretch out my legs
Have to sleep with my neck cranked. My neck always aches
Talk about existential angst! I'm left in this cage
All alone in the dark all day, yes I'm insane!
My legs are so weak, when I stand erect they both shake
Expect me to live in this state, there musta been a mistake
They whisked me away as an infant to this miserable place
I never got to feel my mothers warm kiss and embrace
Licking my urine off the walls for something different to taste
Something different than this foul smelling liquidly paste
Until our captors with their greedy wicked sinister faces
Come to take me away and shoot a bolt into my brain!
[Chorus](x2)
Smile for your Happy Meal
Torture it till madness, kill
The animal, no! animeal
The always empty, cannot feel
So smile for your happy meal
We'll eat until we've had our fill
Throw away the scraps
Now that's the deal
Have a happy meal
[Bridge]
In the back of a truck they load me
I am still alive
They prod me and they poke me
I am still alive
What's that gun that they're [holding]
I am still alive
They shoot me in my skull
I am still alive
Chain me by my ankle
I am still alive
By my feet I dangle
I am still alive
They cut open my throat
[Sheep sounds]
*cough, cough...
[Verse 3]
Let me get this outta the way, I know I'm a hypocrite
What a convenient way to dismiss my position isn't it
I'm sick of it!
So Just because I am not innocent
I'm morally equivalent to being indifferent?
I'm vegetarian cause I'm too weak to be vegan
But this isn't about me, it's about that meat that you're eating
Keep on deceiving' yourself, that delicacy that your feasting'
On was tortured all it's life, mistreated and beaten
Treat a Dog like a Hog, that's funny, so wait
You say your dog fighting's evil while you're grubbing a steak?
And I'm the hypocrite? Ha! I love it, it's great
Let's keep pointing' fingers while these Beings suffer their fate
Look, billions of animals suffer unspeakable agony
For what? So we can have meat as cheap and as fast as we
Can possibly have it?
You're telling' me that you're actually
Cool with sentient Beings being treated so savagely?
No, I think you're as mad as me
Yeah, I think you're as mad me
It's hard to make a change though, believe me it's challenging
But we can't just keep the course, outsourcing this torture
All so we don't have to pay a quarter more for our order
Would you force a poor Labrador to live like a porpoise, an Orca, a pig or a cow?
If not, say no more to this horror!
[Chorus (In Slow-Motion)]
Smile for your Happy Meal
Torture it till madness, kill
The animal, no! animeal
The always empty, cannot feel
So smile for your happy meal
We'll eat until we've had our fill
Throw away the scraps
Now that's the deal
Have a happy meal
It's the same thing everyday
