Sunday Surprise

A man sits down to Sunday lunch
He's had a heavy week
But when his wife brings in his plate
The man is stunned and cannot speak

"No beef, no pork, no leg of lamb
No sausages, no pies?"
She laughs and says "That's it my friend!"
As joy beams from her eyes

"I want my meat I'm hungry"
Shouts the man with knife in hand
"You've had it mate this house is now
Official Vegan Land!"

"No more are we partakers
Of the tortured and the killed
This fridge will never contain
Any death however chilled"

"You'll learn to love our new way
My dear husband in the end
As I'm sure that you will learn to love...
My rescued piglet friend!"

Vegans Are...

"Vegans are crazy!"
"Vegans are mad!"
They portray us as violent
But we're angry and sad

We stand out from the crowd
We stand up for our friends
We don't follow the usual
Marketed trends

Some say we are fools
"In a dreamworld" they say
I say "We are right
And come follow the way!"

"There is much to be done
There are many to save
So get off of your arse
And get out of your cave!"

Vegans are caring
Vegans are kind
And our friends will be free!
Keep that thought in your mind...
