To Kill a Cow

Cars run down the road to New York City Looking for cattle There must be another way to make hamburgers Not too many pastures in Manhattan Traffic won't permit it Going zero miles per hour is no way to hunt for dinner What's McDonald’s secret They sell billions every year People in India are vegetarians Animals have souls and ancestry Cows carry signs in the city “No buns or bumpers” “Beep if you love Jesus”
