about

This song is sung from the perspective of a calf slated for slaughter in the veal industry.

lyrics

i will never see the sun
i will never see the sky
i'll stay in my cage forever

i'll never see the rain
i'll never see the grass
like a goose nailed to a board
becoming fois gras
fois gras
fois gras

what karma!
what did i do?
to deserve this?
look what i'm going through!

i'll never see the rain
or the rivers blue
and i will certainly never jump over the moon!
i'll never see the sky
or the ocean blue
and i will certainly never jump over the moon

i will never see the sun
i will never see the sky
i'll stay in my cage forever
