Balaclava Boy

Still young and small, couldn't talk at all

he wondered why they had a ball

out there in the field

It was his wish to eat his dish

without the flavours of animal bliss

and get this party going

what he didn't know

they put up a show

those strangers in the night

they had blinded his eyes

and fed him with lies

butchers in daylight

The animals stood there in a line

so very keen to get inside

to enter the ark of Noah

The dire consequences were

the pungent scent of burning fur

in a wolrd of red and white

What he didn't know

they put up a show

those men in their disguise

he was no longer deaf

a member of the ALF

balaclava boy

He was wondering

He was saying things

everyone heard about

everyone laughed about

soon the world would be too small

for the abuse he'd free them all

it is also their world they're not from this world

He had to travel far

with in his bag, his golden balaclava

so many pests tried to stop him on the way

But he made up his mind

fight deliberate ignorance,feed people's minds

stood proudly on the barricades

for animal rights

not animal wrongs
