Species Closeout Songtext
von Thea K

Black rhinos, Indian elephants, orangutans, and chimpanzees
Your brothers, your sisters are calling out in agony

Panthers and tigers, bats and crocodiles
Monkeys and kangaroos at a discount price

Species closeout, species closeout
Go, get ′em while they last, species closeout

Human expansion and greed
Breeding like rabbits, just can't have two or three
Bear gall bladder, tiger aphrodisiac
As if we really needed help to breed

Rhinos and elephants, black bears and orangutans
Jaguars and leopard skins at a discount price


Species closeout, species closeout
Go, going, going fast, species closeout
Get ′em while they last, bargain prices
Going, going fast, species closeout

Clear-cutting for the U.S., ivory from Africa
Whale hunts for the Japanese
Silt in rivers, oil in oceans, factory trawlers strip-mining seas

Lions and manatees, wolves and chimpanzees
Pandas and lemurs at a discount price

Species closeout, species closeout, go, get 'em while they last
Species closeout, going, going fast, at a bargain price
You can get 'em, get ′em while they last, we make money fast
Species closeout, get ′em while they last
Species closeout, going, going fast
Species closeout, species closeout!
