If 'S' Is

Lyrics

If 'S' is a cannibal He does not eat just animals He eats men

A humanitarian He likes a piece of flesh Fresh from the fire

We see cannibalism As primitive, uncivilized behavior It violates the very things We stand for

How we hold sacred How we live Everything we think Or favor and plan for

Course it is a matter of degree It can be that once we were like him

Living in a tree Sitting on a limb Climbing down to eat Going up again

But we came down for good When someone pointed out You can't brew beer up here You can't brew beer up here
