Morrissey is clearly very passionate about this subject and this song definitely sticks in your mind with all its melancholy and gruesomeness.

Although I understand completely why some people are vegetarians, I don't really see what the great problem is- after all, all carnivorous animals go around killing other animals for food, don't they? It's natural selection, survival of the fittest.

However, I do think the animals we do raise for food should live good, free lives, not cooped up in tiny sheds and treated like science experiments.

With the exception of fish, most of the animals that humans kill and eat for food are actually vegetarian. Cows, chickens, sheep. All of that "food chain" and "survival of the fittest" stuff does not apply.
