Lyrics

You spin your fruit in a blender, keeps you kind of slender
Complete surrender to splendor
You are an animal defender and I'm a life ender
I like my meat juicy and tender
You know I don't condone the planet broccoli that you live on
You?re all alone in a veggie cyclone
I'll be up here on my meat throne, call me Flintstone
I'm in the zone eatin? t-bone

Lettuce, croutons, and mushrooms, when will you realize
Soymilk, tofu, and legumes, I hate to criticize
Why won't you just give meat a chance

Don?t look for me, I'll be grillin', always so fulfillin'
I'll be here chillin' and fillin'
I know you're bovine unwillin', but there's nothin' to killin?
I like my meat with juices spillin'
My barbecue?s so thick, I like to take it when I picnic
It?s got quite a kick, call me romantic
I know you think I'm satanic, but don't panic
Just take a lick and you'll be manic

Lettuce, croutons, and mushrooms, when will you realize
Soymilk, tofu, and legumes, I hate to criticize
Why won't you just give meat a chance

All right cool, can we agree to disagree
I know it?s, oh, so hard for you to see my way
But I was born into this, my Dad hunts
Pheasant, deer, dove, his den?s filled with stuffed ducks
It?s a sport, man, what can I say
We love to shoot, and eat living things
And it?s been done since the beginning of time
As long as meat?s not wasted, I don?t see why
It?s such a problem for you to grasp this
Close your eyes, try to see my logic
Even cows are claimin? we should eat more chicken
I don?t care for pigs, but I do eat bacon
I guess you wouldn?t agree with survival of the fittest
Man, forget it; pass a Guinness, talkin? about diets
Gettin? worse than politics and religion, let?s drink
I?m ready to speak about anything, but meat

Lettuce, croutons, and mushrooms, when will you realize
Soymilk, tofu, and legumes, I hate to criticize
Why won't you just give meat a chance
