A Battery Hen

battery Hen 'Hey! You human, Let me loose Let me go. This is abuse I was born to run, to scratch the earth To flap my wings and have joy and mirth Open this cage and let me out now Or I'll haunt you forever, this I avow I won't be your egg laying machine Keeping me cramped up is just plain mean Lun will get you and throw you in the soup If you don't let me out of this tiny coop' 'It's Lun to the rescue. In the soup you go And I'm going to cook you real slow You battery farmer I will teach thee To let all animals be happy and free Now you will suffer for what you have done I'm cooking you and eating you on a bun' Lun opens the cage and lets out the hen And promises her to be caged never again And causes all battery farmers to agree To keep all animals happy and free ©Copyright All Rights Reserved April 7, 2006 Lila May Guptill (AKA) Lunaria
