The Unseen Tears Of The Albacore Lyrics - The Vandals

When Humanity creates a hierchy 

Placing blowholes above anemones 

When sovereign nations have made it policy 

Slaughter anything that goes with wasabe 

In the food chain, there is a third rail 

Winking at mass murder of the yellow tail 

Let 'em suffocate, there's no intelligence 

They don't jump through hoops for an audience 

[Chorus:] 

Say a prayer for the Earth as you make a wish 

Who will shed one tear for the tunafish, 

or the thousand other species on the ocean floor? 

Does a spot on prime time TV Land justify the ruination of a fisherman 

That could've been me cries the albacore 

With the carnage sealed hermetically 

In the killing fields of local canneries 

It's a Dolphin Safe atrocity (Flippery frippery) 

[Chorus:] 

Metal gafs are flying 

As the innocent keep dying 

But are we only crying 

For God's creatures not worth frying?
