about

There is nothing funny about factory farming operations (CAFOS).
There is another way to raise animals in which their natures are respected. Permaculture or regenerative farming repair degraded land and at the same time raise healthy animals that in turn give us health when we eat them.
I have tried this concept out on a small scale raising ducks in the city for meat, eggs, and the wonderful fertilizer that constantly shoots out of their butts.
The entire process has proved to be a rewarding experience, and forms the backround for this cheeky little country song about animals I want to eat, and how I'm going to cook them to feed my family.

lyrics

One bad day is all you're gonna have Duck, one bad day that's better than me.
One bad day is all you're gonna have Duck that's all you'll see.
I'm gonna slow cook you in the oven, till your fat is glistening.
One bad day is all you're gonna have Duck.One bad day that's better than me.

One bad day is all you're gonna have Pig. One bad day that's better than me.
I'm gonna fry you up for breakfast, maybe sous vide for Tea
One bad day is all your gonna have Pig .One bad day is all you'll see.

One bad day is all you're gonna have Cow. One bad day thats better than me.
You've been hanging out on grass and napping in the shade of the trees.
I'm gonna put you in the freezer and feed my family.
One bad day is all you're gonna have Cow. One bad day is all you'll see.

One bad day is all you're gonna have Chicken. One bad day is better than me.
You need to know the truth, I'm gonna use you well.
I've got some plans for your liver, sitting on the cheese on my cracker.
I've got some plans for your wings and your legs, my little girl loves to chew the bones.
I got some plans for your breasts you know no one will leave them alone, and after all your meat is gone I've got a soup that'll make you whole
One bad day is all you're gonna have Chicken. One bad day is all you'll see.

One bad day is all you're gonna have Wormy. One bad day is all you'll see.
I put you in this old bathtub, with more food than you could eat, You've been in heaven you've been gorging your belly but one day you're gonna be duck feed.
One bad day is all you're gonna have Wormy. One bad day thats better than me.l
