Can civilization progress without all the killing? It doesn’t take much; we just have to be willing People hunt for sport and poaching for the haul Selling skin & bones of creatures great and small Clearing out forests in the name of development Fairly certain slaughter is not what that word meant That’s the sad thing about this world, its run by greed Wonder how it came to this and who planted the seed The corporate's only want their pockets filled While the poachers just want their orders billed What if we all spend some time on conserving? Couldn’t we co-exist without the marauding? Game hunters stand next to their kills shamelessly And we sit here behind screens, pretty much aimlessly  Keyboard heroes spread their words all around But only a handful would actually get on the ground We have to stop taking this planet for granted          Protect our animals and get trees planted We’re not just killing animals, we're killing
