WE LOVE ANIMALS

 

VERSE 1

Oh if you care about animals

And you love ‘em and adore ‘em

And you wanna be kind

Don’t eat ‘em anymore

You can get all your protein

And nutrients from plants

And you’ll feel so good

You’ll wanna sing and shout and dance

 

CHORUS

We love animals

So we eat plants instead

We love animals

It’s kind, and we wanna spread it

 

VERSE 2

You can make plants into

Any kind of food

Even milk, cheese, butter, eggs

And meat substitutes

So you favorite meals

Don’t have to disappear

You just learn how to make ‘em

From a recipe, my dear

 

CHORUS

We love animals

So we eat plants instead

We love animals

It’s kind, and we wanna spread it

 

BRIDGE

We eat grains, beans and legumes

We eat tempeh, seitan and tofu

We eat so many vegetables, so many fruits

We eat nuts, seeds, herbs and spices, too

And may we all remember to say, “Thank You!”

For this incredible abundance of plant food

Oh it puts me in a really super awesome good mood

Let’s do the plant dance to the … plant groove!

 

INSTRUMENAL

 

VERSE 3

Oh you’re helping out the planet

With a plant-based diet 

Oh it’s better for the land, sea, air

And climate

So next time you’re wonderin’

What to put on your plate

Choose peace, not harm

Choose love, don’t wait

Does this resonate?

Hey, let’s celebrate!

 

CHORUS

We love animals

So we eat plants instead

We love animals

From our toes up to our heads

We love animals

It’s kind, and we’re gonna spread it

We love animals

So we eat plants instead!

Maybe for today

You can just be kind to yourself

‘Cause that’s important too

To yourself

And send some more love

To everyone else

For your choices

And your heart is big and free

Oh you’re kind

Cause that’s who you wanna be

That’s who you wanna be

That’s who you wanna be

Well that’s who you wanna be

That’s who you wanna be

…

And prefer to hang out in herds

They build such deep friendships

And complex relationships

They love to groom each other

And they love a good ear massage

And they really love a good belly rub

Oh they love to take lots of cuddly naps

With each other in a big old pile

And they love to be held and petted

Their babies are called chicks

And they love those babies so much

They can even talk back and forth with their babies

While they’re still inside their egg shells

Still inside their little egg shells

Each one an individual

Unique in their own way

While we make cookies that will blow our minds

And kind to the ants

Friends Not Food

 

VERSE 1

Do we really need to eat animals

To live long and prosper

Do we need their milk, do we need their eggs

To stay healthy, alive and awesome

Do we need their fur, do we need their skin

Especially without permission

Could we live on plants, 100%

And be kinder and happier

And healthier earthlings

 

CHORUS

Can we examine

Our deepest conditioning

And can we look honestly

At our own participation

 

VERSE 2

Well, you wouldn’t drink milk from an aardvark

Or a jaguar or a zebra

Oh it would be really weird if you saw it in the store

And you wouldn’t drink it in the wild either

And who decided which creatures

Are ok to eat and which aren’t

Oh doesn’t it just make a ton more sense

To eat none of ‘em

 

CHORUS

Oh can we question

Our assumptions and definitions

Around justice and equality

Respect and inclusion

 

INSTRUMENTAL

 

VERSE 3

What if we freed the cows

And the chickens and the pigs

And the horses and the rabbits

And the little lambs too

And let ‘em live with their families

Without the threat of being used

For they do experience pleasure and pain

And fear and love and loss and joy

Oh they wanna be happy and safe and free

They want to live, just like you and me

 

VERSE 4

Oh can we extract ourselves

From systems of oppression

And can we move closer

To true and lasting liberation

And can we surrender

Our rationalizations

And can we awaken to

Our internalized speciesism 

 

CHORUS

Oh can we widen

Our circle of compassion

To encompass all our animal

Friends and relations

 

CODA

And let the animals sing

Let the animals sing

 

We’re your friends

We’re not your food

We have families and feelings

Just like you

We were meant to be

Livin’ wild and free

In this world

We’re not your food

We are your friends

And we don’t wanna be

Your ingredients

And you can help

To bring this harming to an end

 

We are your friends

We’re not your food

And we’re part

Of your earthen neighborhood

You know you’re not free

’Til we are free

It’s true, it’s true, it’s true

We’re not your food

We are your friends

And we don’t wanna be

Your ingredients

We’re your relatives

Your community

Be kind, be peace, be love

You’ll see that

You can bring this harming

To an end

Plant Milk

 

VERSE 1

Pour it in a cup

And drink it all up

Bake it into your birthday cake

Or fry it up in a flap jack, griddle cake

Hot cake, pancake

Put it in your cookie dough

Or in your tea or your turmeric latte, oh

BRIDGE

You know none of this milk comes from a mama cow

She makes hers for her babies, and only for her babies

So what are we doing? We’re not baby cows!

Those mother cow udders aren’t our property

 

And we wouldn’t drink milk from our dog, now would we?

Or a cat or a hamster or a coyote

So let’s leave that milk where it was meant to be

And get our milk instead from the plants we see

 

And I know you might wonder, do plants have udders? No!

Then how do you get milk from oats soy and all the others

There’s lots of different methods, depending on the plant

Soak ‘em, grind ‘em, blend ‘em, strain ‘em, something like that

You can learn all about it on the Internet

 

VERSE 3

Oh the milk of human kindness

Is the milk that doesn’t blind us

To the suffering in which we participate

When we don’t make choices that liberate

What kind of world do you wanna live in?

One where we care for our animal friends?

We’ll choose plant milk, cheese, sour cream, yogurt, butter

And nobody has to share their udders! oh

 

PRE-CHORUS

Which milk?

Oat milk

What kind of milk?

Hazelnut milk

Whose milk?

Pistachio milk

What kind of milk?

Coconut milk

Rice milk

Nice milk

Soy milk

Joy milk

 

CHORUS

Plant milk

It makes you dance milk

Give it a chance milk

Start a new romance milk

I’m loving me some plant milk

Take a second glance milk

Snap out of your trance milk

Clarify your stance milk

You’ll be so advanced milk

Wear your plant pants milk

Lovin’ on the plant milk

Start a new romance milk

Plant milk!

Kindness Matters

 

VERSE 1

Kindness is an intention

It’s not about perfection

It’s the beauty in your heart 

Showing you the way to start

Movin’ in a kind direction

 

VERSE 2

It doesn’t have to be about wrong and right

Or good and bad, don’t need to make it a fight

We’re doing our best

Learning as we go

To move the world in a kind direction

 

BRIDGE

‘Cause just a little drop of kindness

Can make an ocean of difference

And a little bit of friendliness

Can change everything for a person

Or a chicken or a spider

Or a forest or a bee

‘Cause every tiny act of kindness really matters

And every molecule of peace really matters

It matters

 

VERSE 3

So imagine a world where the kindness flows

Into every heart, and the loving grows

A little stronger and brighter

And longer and wider

We can do it if we do it together

We can change the world forever

We can do it if we do it together

We can change the world forever

We can do it if we do it together

Kindness is the truest treasure

​

​

Peace Is the Way

​

VERSE 1

Peace is a choice we make

With every step we take

With every thought we think

Every word we say

And we can make the choice

To use our beautiful voices

And hearts and bodies and minds

Peace is the way

 

VERSE 2

All you people far and near

It’s time to hold each other dear

For we all have a heart inside

That’s basically good

And when we remember to care

And love and listen and share

You know we change the world

Peace is the way

 

CHORUS

Sometimes peace comes when you’re quiet

Or being still, or feeling calm

Sometimes peace means no more fighting

Or when the anger’s done and gone

Sometimes it’s speaking truth with kindness

Or dancing wild your heart’s own song

All the time it’s strong and loving

And it’s been right here inside us all along

 

VERSE 3

For we are all the same

Made of sun and dirt and rain

Made of wind and breath and sky

We are the earth

And if we want to thrive

We gotta touch it all with our mindfulness

With every step we take

Peace is the way

 

CHORUS

Sometimes peace means making new friends

Welcoming hearts and holding hands

Peace means we include everyone

In our circle, in our land

And all around the world we’re singing 

Peace means we’re all family

Peace is strong and peace is loving
