Full Moon (The Vegan)

Howl...oops maybe I'm howling too loud
After all this is not the woods of home
A concrete jungle all around me
And scary sounds, even for a werewolf like me

Buildings so tall they hide the sky
And the moon, my friend, is barely seen
Muted sounds of distant traffic
I fear the hunting will be poor here

What was I thinking to come here
Thought the big city might be kinder to me
New tastes and new sensations
Better get moving around and see

I slink down alleys dark and dreary
Rubbish left piled up everywhere
And rats so big they could be cats
Those mongrels challenge me

Me a werewolf young and proud
From a pack of rats I'm running
I swear these rats are not normal
There's something strange, their eyes are glowing

This horde from hell is right on my tail
Ducking left, right, left down alleys
Can't keep up this pace, will soon collapse
And finally start to lose them

I ran and ran till main street beckoned
And Hell's horde left far behind
Around the edges of light I skirted
Trying to find my way back home

Cross the field and down the highway
Never stopping once to eat
Thought of meat now makes me nauseous
The lifestyle of Vegan sounds good to me
