ANIMAL KINGDOM

a song by Maureen Koplow

Cry for the animal kingdom, don't bring them pain
They are suffering alone
Hear them sob and hear them moan
If your heart's not made of stone

Dance with the animal kingdom and bring them life
For the earth on which we live
Is not ours to take or give
So whatever you believe

Pray for the animal kingdom, and bring them hope
All the beasts, each fish and bird,
Are just waiting for the word
Say it loud so you'll be heard.
Cry for the animal kingdom, don't bring them pain
They are suffering alone
Hear them sob and hear them moan
If your heart's not made of stone

Dance with the animal kingdom and bring them life
In the eyes of Mother Earth,
Fragile planet of our birth,
Every life has equal worth

Live with the animal kingdom, and bring them peace
For the earth on which we live
Is not ours to take or give
So whatever you believe

Pray for the animal kingdom, and bring them hope
All the beasts, each fish and bird,
Are just waiting for the word
Say it loud so you'll be heard.

Sing to the animal kingdom and bring them joy
If you heed what's in your heart,
You will know you are a part
Of Mother Nature's perfect art

Learn from the animal kingdom and bring them strength
There are animals inside
If you let them be your guide
Then the truth can't be denied.

We are the animal kingdom, we bring them love.
