"No" lyrics

"No"

"Do you have any strong feelings on the subject?"
"On what, eating meat?"
"Yeah. Or-"
"If I could afford it, I'd eat plenty"
"Do you think anybody thinks of it from the animal's point of view? Do you think anybody looks at it from the animal's point of view? As in-"
"I don't. If I could afford it I'd go buy it, wouldn't I?"

Multinational company controls all aspects of production
From the extraction of the raw material to the processing plants
From the advertising campaign to the finished, packaged product on it's own chain of supermarket shelves
Forests cut down to provide the land to the grow the wheat to feed the cows to produce the meat for the beef burgers you eat
For the leather on your feet

One man's meat is another man's dying children
One man's overconsumption is another man's malnutrition
One man's wife slaving over a hot stove
Another man's wife slaving under a hot sun

People can say no
No
No
No
No
No
No

"You never have any strong feelings about it?"
"No, I think it's got to do about the way people've been brought up."
"Yeah."
"Usually; the family background."
"Yeah."
"Not just with that - with everything."
