Ronald's Song by the Veggie Rapper © Zak 2002, Vegan Views 92 (Spring 2002)

I had the unfortunate experience of seeing a McDonalds commercial which was sung to the tune of `The Do Ron Ron'. (An old 50s tune I think). It was such a manipulative advert that I felt moved to write my own version of it! (Sung to the tune of Do Ron Ron)

Do you want some dead animal in your tum?
We Do Ron Ron. We Do Ron Ron.
Do you want to see a calf taken from its mum?
We Do Ron Ron. We Do Ron Ron.
And locked in a shed where it can't see the sun?
We Do Ron Ron. We Do Ron Ron.
Do you want to see it herded up and shot with a gun?
We Do Ron Ron. We Do Ron Ron.
And chop off its flesh and stick it in a bun?
We Do Ron Ron. We Do Ron Ron.

Yeah, we love calves and cows!
Yeah, we love chickens and sows!
We really want to see them every day
Chopped up into bits on a plastic tray!
Do you want to see a place that's really great?
We do Ron Ron. We Do Ron Ron.
Where the food is really fast and never late?
We Do Ron Ron. We Do Ron Ron.
Where a clown jumps around screaming,
`I'm your mate'.
We Do Ron Ron. We Do Ron Ron.
And his greasy, fat smile hides a face of hate!
We Do Ron. We Do Ron Ron.

Yeah, they've got plastic toys
And they give them to the girls and boys.
The kids think it's wonderful
It's just like a dream
And none of them can hear the animals scream!

Do you want us to control and manipulate?
We Do Ron Ron. We Do Ron Ron.
So you'll always eat meat from a plastic plate?
We Do Ron Ron. We Do Ron Ron.
Then come and visit us. It's not too late!
We Do Ron Ron. We Do Ron Ron.
And fill up your belly with the food of hate!
We Do Ron Ron. We Do Ron Ron.
