Harp Seal
Wearing virgin white
Pure and innocent
You come in to this world
Love, peace and kindness is all you know
You only kill for survival
If you're still alive in 2 weeks
You will lose your virgin white
You will become a silvery grey
That is when you are safe
That is when you are free
But be aware
Of the most dangerous animal
He will be carrying a club or gun
He will be wearing your family on his back
And his shoes will be stained red
Mum Mum help me cries the little seal
The man the Hunter is trying to kill me
With bullet holes in her side
The wounded mother
Rolls her way along
Too late
Her baby's gone
In its place
A pool of blood
