the vandals - the unseen tears of the albacore lyrics

when humanity creates a hierchy
placing blowholes above anemones
when sovereign nations have made it policy
slaughter anything that goes with wasabe
in the food chain, there is a third rail
winking at mass murder of the yellow tail
let 'em suffocate, there's no intelligence
they don't jump through hoops for an audience

[chorus:]
say a prayer for the earth as you make a wish
who will shed one tear for the tunafish,
or the thousand other species on the ocean floor?
does a spot on prime time tv land justify the ruination of a fisherman
that could've been me cries the albacore
with the carnage sealed hermetically
in the killing fields of local canneries
it's a dolphin safe atrocity (flippery frippery)

[chorus:]
metal gafs are flying
as the innocent keep dying
but are we only crying
for god's creatures not worth fryin
