Reading In A Ribhouse
from We Made Too Many Bombs! by Being Beta
about
Last year I read a book that completely changed my life.
'The Omnivore's Dilemma' by Michael Pollan.
This is a book about industrial farming and food culture as a whole. There is a certain chapter in this book that really got to me. Michael is literally reading a book on vegetarian philosophy while eating in a rib house. The song is just about knowing what you're eating and how it got there - if you're still okay with eating it, that's fine - as long as you know what you're actually putting in your body.
just read the book, the world would be a much much better place if we all did.

lyrics
We've gone too far to turn back now
And you don't want to stand by
But thanks to generations of war
We Made Too Many Bombs, trying to save their lives
And Nothing is as it seems
We've been treated, as machines
And even if you think you've done no wrong
There's been corn in your soft drink all along
And that money that you've spent on your coke
Does little to stop, the farmers going broke
While the government cuts, deals to keep it low
It's all fair game and the consumer doesn't know
But scrutinizing a label, won't save a life
Make friends with a farmer, and his wife
Try reading in a rib-house, maybe you will find
It's only up to you
Scrutinizing a label, won't save a life
Make friends with a farmer, and his wife
Try reading in a rib-house, maybe you will find
It's only up to you, to educate your mind
It's only up to you (to educate your mind)
Educate your mind
And you don't want to stand by
But thanks to generations of war
We Made Too Many Bombs, trying to save their lives
And Nothing is as it seems
We've been treated, as machines
And even if you think you've done no wrong
There's been corn in your soft drink all along
And that money that you've spent on your coke
Does little to stop, the farmers going broke
While the government cuts, deals to keep it low
It's all fair game and the consumer doesn't know
But scrutinizing a label, won't save a life
Make friends with a farmer, and his wife
Try reading in a rib-house, maybe you will find
It's only up to you
Scrutinizing a label, won't save a life
Make friends with a farmer, and his wife
Try reading in a rib-house, maybe you will find
It's only up to you, to educate your mind
It's only up to you (to educate your mind)
Educate your mind
