Backed by politics & fear, not science nor public opinion, this expensive & ineffective badger cull could well cause more problems than it cures....even our friend Sir David Attenborough says so!! Listen in the track for what he says.... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BADGER SWAGGER ~ LYRICS: Verse 1: We love the badgers and they matter to our nanners Cameron where's your manners why them cameras try scan us Some are sitting in a palace champagne and scallops Some are in the store house begging for a package We can't even manage and killing all the badgers aint gonna fix the damage It is sinning and drastic like killing for plastic Most are living brassic people back this We can't have this evil madness Will you tell your grand kids the story of the badgers In 40 years time when they've all vanished That you was to busy getting dizzy with a gadget Sign the Petition get busy and back it Listen to the mission see the vision and the tactic This will make the difference cos I went and Rob Cass'd it Abbey road studios artful badger smacked it Yeah I wrote a banger cos with grammar I'm a captain Chorus: Some things are black and white Come on we got to win this fight Some thing are wrong not right So people gotta hold on tight ! Some things are like dynamite Got to make them see the light Some things are black and white Come on fight the fight Verse 2: Listen to my verse and words In the tune It's all going down on the first of June People gather round give your point of view In the manor underground be the voice for you crew Yeah it matters now make a choice for the truth You can't cull the badgers if you aint got the proof NFU NFU deaths bad karma for your revenue NFU NFU it's not a clever move I think you better think it through Be careful what you do Cos the inner city's gritty And we don't like the news TB just reduced by 16% Even if every single badger is dead So what's the effect were not impressed All the scientists said it doesn't make sense Yet the killing goes ahead How do you sleep in your bed Get Off My Badger or I will get vex! Chorus: (as above) Spoken Word: (Sir David Attenborough) So the government instituted a major inquiry to establish scientifically the facts. That involved culling 11,000 badgers and the results by the government adviser to that independent scientific group were that culling was not a viable policy option. Chorus: x 2 (as above) ------------------------------------------------------------ WHO ARE THE ARTFUL BADGER?
