The Dolphins Songtext
von Spearmint

I'm nodding to say that I'm listening to you
Not nodding to say I agree with you
We're slaughtering the dolphins

It's time to face what we already know
There's a tenth of the fish there were fifty years ago
We're slaughtering the dolphins

We dynamite the coral reef
While trawlers drag the ocean
Destroying everything in their wake
The bottom of the ocean
Mercury, copper, pesticides
We dump them in the ocean
Fish change sex, gradually die
In the polluted ocean


We took the gift and abused it until it couldn't last
We're selling the future to pay for the past
We're slaughtering the dolphins

The poster is ripped... a calm clear sea shows through
One day the oceans will be pristine and blue
We've had our time with the world
We're slaughtering the dolphins

Ship the fish around the world
Over-fished to extinction
The by-catch killed needlessly
Outnumbers what is eaten

You claim a fish feels no pain
To justify your behaviour
But no matter how they are caught
Every fish will suffer...
