Kumbaya Carnist

Eva Hamer

Am                            E7
Oh what a privilege a reason to die
                                   Am
I gave him that and he gave me his life
                               E7
I ate his dead body to sustain my own
                              Am
No I didn’t need it but it was still nice

Oh what a privilege a reason to live
I gave her that and then stole her kids
I sold off their bodies so I got their milk
Oh what a privilege a reason to live

CHORUS
Am                                 E7
I’m a kumbaya kumbaya kumbaya carnist
Am                                 E7
I’m a kumbaya kumbaya kumbaya carnist

I am the pride of my mother nature
I can kill anybody so long as I think her
For giving me flesh to put in my mouth
Making me pretty with leather and fur

Oh what a joy I’m in touch with the past
I live like my ancestors, eat meat and fast
They didn’t have soybeans, so neither do I
I eat the most wild meat that money can buy

CHORUS

Oh what a privilege my gratitude is
I said thank you sister then i did you in
Though if I wasn’t grateful perhaps you’d still die
Sometimes I say sorry and sometimes I lie

I once tried not to eat them but now I won’t dare
My blood is O positive and I just don’t care
If anyone suffers if anyone died
So long is their species is different from mine

CHORUS
