Be nice to yu turkeys dis christmas
Cos turkeys jus wanna hav fun
Turkeys are cool, an turkeys are wicked
An every turkey has a Mum.
Be nice to yu turkeys dis christmas,
Don't eat it, keep it alive,
It could be yu mate an not on yu plate
Say, Yo! Turkey I'm on your side.
I got lots of friends who are turkeys
An all of dem fear christmas time,
Dey say 'Benj man, eh, I wanna enjoy it,
But dose humans destroyed it
An humans are out of dere mind,
Yeah, I got lots of friends who are turkeys
Dey all hav a right to a life,
Not to be caged up an genetically made up
By any farmer an his wife.

TURKEYS UNITED (a song)
We gather together
As birds of a feather
Oh Turkeys United we stand!
If you would be thinner
Skip Thanksgiving dinner
We turkeys think that would be grand!
Why don't you try it?
Go on a diet!
Chew on some succulent carrots or peas!
Why don't you try it?
Go on a diet!
Order a pizza with sausage and cheese!
Turkeys United!
No people invited!
Turkeys United!
No people please!
