Beef

Boogie Down Productions

Beef what a relief



When will this poisonous product cease?



This is another public service announcement



You can believe it or you can doubt it



Let us begin now with the cow



The way it gets to your plate and how



The cow doesn't grow fast enough for man



So through his greed he makes a faster plan



He has drugs to make the cow grow quicker



Through the stress the cow gets sicker



Twenty one different drugs are pumped



Into the cow in one big lump



So just before it dies, it cries



In the slaughterhouse full of germs and flies



Off with the head, they pack it, drain it, and cart it



And there it is, in your local supermarket



Red and bloody, a corpse, neatly packed



And you wonder about heart attacks?



Come on now man let's be for real



You are what you eat is the way I feel



But, the Food and Drug Administration



Will tell you meat is the perfect combination



See cows live under fear and stress



Trying to think what's gonna happen next



Fear and stress can become a part of you



In your cells and blood, this is true



So when the cow is killed, believe it



You preserve those cells, you freeze it



Thaw it out with the blood and season it



Then you sit down and begin eatin it



In your body, it's structure becomes your structure



All the fear and stress of another



Any drug is addictive by any name



Even drugs in meat, they are the same



The FDA has America strung out



On drugs in beef no doubt



So if you think that what I say is a bunch of crock



Tell yourself you're gonna try and stop



Eatin meat and you'll see you can't compete



It's the number one drug on the street



Not crack, cause that was made for just black



But brown beef,
