Save This
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I have no head for figures
My hands cannot explain
Endangered animals and acid rain
I see dead rivers running dry
I see the activists who march and cry
How they cry singin'
Why must we desecrate this land
I'll tell you why
Because we can that's why
Save the whales, save the seals
Save he eagle, save the bison and the beach
Why not save your breath
Save the porpoise, and the dolphin
Save the gerbil, save the racoon and the rat
Why not save some stamps
I am a human, I'm a goddamn human being
I walk errect
See the cheetah, oh so supple, lean and quick
As he chases a gazzelle
But he can't drive a car
At least not very far
I am a human, I'm a goddamn human being
I can pay for sex
"Hey, there's a great show on teh Discovery Channel tonight,
the history of the badger."
"Hmm, I wonder what badger tastes like?"
"I don't know, probably tastes like ferret."
"Wow, you had ferret?"
"Yeah."
"What's it taste like?"
"Chicken."
I am a human, I'm a goddamn human being
I can wipe my ass
"What gives you the right to kill at will?"
"I'll tell you what, guns.
Big fuckin' guns with giant fuckin' bullets pal."
I am a human, I'm a goddamn human being
I can shave my balls
