Cannibals Of The Western World

Like soft fruit, we're boxed up

We're banged up and lidded

We're stacked away, packed away

Pre-taxed and gridded

Apartmented, motorised

Mortgaged and kiddied

Each income computed

And suitably quidded

Then citified, pitiful

Puddled and giddied

We're herded on waggons

And wheelied and skidded

We're animals, we're the common herd

We're the cannibals of the western world

We're animals, we're the common herd

We're the cannibals of the western world

We're animals, we're the common herd

We're the cannibals of the western world

Cannibals of the western world

Cannibals of the western world

Of the western world

We're bundled to market

And monied and bidded

And cutted and gutted

And bloodied and ridded

And sliced up and eaten

And each of us did it

We're animals, we're the common herd

We're cannibals of the western world

We're animals, we're the common herd

We're cannibals of the western world

We're animals, we're the common herd

We're cannibals of the western world

Cannibals of the western world

Cannibals of the western world

Cannibals

Of the West

We're those feeding. We're their food

Hear us chomping. We're the chewed

We're the diners. Eat us, dude

We're the starving. We're the stewed

Farmed and fattened, caged and zooed

Roasted, toasted, boiled, baked, brewed

We're the flesh that's much valued

Hunters hunted. Prey pursued

We're the mincemeat. We're menu'd

We're the mass, the multitude

We're the flock, the breed, the brood

We're here to be barbecued

We're animals, we're the common herd

We're the cannibals of the western world

We're animals, we're the common herd
