In support of all the amazing activists at Camp Beagle. While I was singing, one of our dogs came and stood beside me and pushed her head into my hands. It breaks our hearts to think of all the puppies and dogs incarcerated at MBR Acres in Cambridgeshire, UK. Day after day they are born into a terrible fate. These poor beagles are bred to be used in painful toxicity tests. It is time for such horrific cruelty to end and for these shameful breeding facilities to close.
‘Police Escort’
No way out, they've come to take us
We got a police escort
Feel our hurt, we won't survive this
Little deaths, they're going to kill us
Damn their lies, where is the heart
You are our voice but they will break us
Out of sight endure the worst
Trials perverse and tests outdated
It's a bloody outrage, society's shame
We live and die alone in pain
They fill us full of toxic waste, that’s why they breed us
Beautiful souls come save us
Born for torture, the beagle’s curse
Birth and death, life here is worse
The gates will open and bring our hearse
We got a police escort
Broken science hides the greed
They make us cry and scream and bleed
Cruel hands for dirty deeds
They got a police escort for all their needs
It's a bloody outrage, society's shame
We live and die alone in pain
They fill us full of toxic waste, that’s why they breed us
Beautiful souls come save us
It's a bloody outrage, society's shame
We live and die alone in pain
They fill us full of toxic waste, that’s why they breed us
Beautiful souls come save us
Beautiful souls come save us
Beautiful souls come save us
Beautiful souls will save us
