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...
