The Meat Ban

The government banned all meats 
Claiming that it hurts religious 
sentiments 
The band, 'New Age Hippies' sang 
'Nothing left to sacrifice', Let's 
Revolt 
They campaigned in social media 
With the keywords, 'Freedom to
Eat'
Their cult companions gathered in 
Front of parliament to protest
Loudly 
We want our meat and our right back
You're just the Harries' we voted 
Remember 
They started pelting the cheeses at 
Lawmakers who defended the 
Ban
While some of them grilled the meat 
In defiance, despite the threat of
Arrest
