Meat is animal flesh that is eaten as food. Generally, this means the skeletal muscle and associated fat and other tissues, but it may also describe other edible tissues such as offal. Often, meat is used in a more restrictive sense—the flesh of mammalian species (pigs, cattle, lambs, etc.) raised and prepared for human consumption, to the exclusion of fish and other seafood, poultry, and other animals. Usage varies worldwide by culture, and some countries such as India have large populations that avoid the consumption of all or most kinds of meat. Game or bush meat is also generally distinguished from that produced by agriculture.
The consumption of meat has various traditions and rituals associated with it in different cultures such as kosher and halal and its production is generally regulated by state authorities as well. This article is mainly focused on that process from primary production to consumption.
The word meat comes from the Old English word mete, which referred to food in general. The term is related to mad in Danish, mat in Swedish and Norwegian, and matur in Icelandic, which also mean 'food'. The word "mete" also exists in Old Frisian (and to a lesser extent, modern West Frisian) to denote important food, differentiating it from "swiets" (sweets) and "dierfied" (animal feed).
Michael Lee Aday (born Marvin Lee Aday; September 27, 1947), better known by his stage name, Meat Loaf, is an American hard rock musician and actor. He is noted for the Bat Out of Hell album trilogy consisting of Bat Out of Hell, Bat Out of Hell II: Back Into Hell and Bat Out of Hell III: The Monster is Loose. Bat Out of Hell has sold more than 43 million copies. After more than 30 years, it still sells an estimated 200,000 copies annually and stayed on the charts for over nine years, making it one of the best selling albums of all time.
Although he enjoyed success with Bat Out of Hell and Bat Out of Hell II: Back Into Hell and earned a Grammy Award for Best Rock Vocal Performance, Solo for the song "I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)" on the latter album, Meat Loaf experienced some initial difficulty establishing a steady career within his native US. However, he has retained iconic status and popularity in Europe, especially the UK, where he ranks 23rd for the number of weeks overall spent on the charts. He ranked 96th on VH1's "100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock".

I am a prince I have it all
I hear your footsteps through the wall
I wait in silence for your call
Then take a shot and watch you fall
I am a ghost but I cannot fly
I'm stuck here as the years slide by
I need a resting place 'cause i
Already felt my body die
If I had a host of ghosts
Living on my street
I'd jive and strive to stay alive
And offer them some meat
I need a different life I think
Perhaps I'd be the missing link
And treasure moments as I drink
It don't feel much like a home without a dog
It don't feel much like a pool without a frog
It don't feel much like a world without a girl
It don't feel much like a girl without a human being
It don't feel much like a fish without a pond
It don't feel much like a fence with no beyond
It don't feel much like a church without a god inside
It don't feel much like a bank without a lot of money
Oh come on baby give me your meat
It don't feel much like a foot without a shoe
It don't feel much like a me without a you
It don't feel much like a train without a buffet car
It don't feel much like a bed when there's nobody on it
Ah swallow it
It don't feel much like a bath without a plug
It don't feel much like a hole without a drug
It don't feel much like a drug without a side effect
It don't feel much like an effect if you don't love nobody
Let Us Feast
The smell of cooked flesh
Last scent of sweet death
Peeled from the bone of the kill
I sink my teeth in
I tear the steaming flesh
The blood runs down my throat
Desecrating what was once alive
[Lead D.C]
The resistance you put up
Was feeble to say the least
I only wanted your sweet meat
You struggled for your life
Intro: *Alarm Sounds*
Damn alarm clock

Even if we gotta go shootin wit the heat
Even if we lie to you

Verse2:
I only got enough money for some Top Ramen
Noodles
My son lookin at me like he dont wanna come

Chorus extended
(Hey Kev wake up x2)
Verse3:

Alright son

Alright, you meet me down the street
Where we usually meet at..
Im, I'm goin to get someone
You just getcha fuckin ass in that fuckin class
Now i'm confused But the fly continue to fight against the screen
I watch but the head start to go around cause nwo there's silence here
Now there's a new box on your bed I 'm feeling free no w i'm feeling different
Watch me cause my blood has done my meat So sweet
Now i'm here driving my car faster than everyone
Now my head is so clear like your eyes eat me Swallow me then eat me now
Please let's take my hand and lick my head " how is clear"
With your anger-tears eat my bones eat my bones eat my bones
I seek life... so don't you even try to get outside my reign
You run away... no matter where you go you know you shall be mine
I will listen... to the sound of your breath
My fast claws... they switch it to the death
While your meat... it's getting harder from the suffering
Let's dance on her again and then we crash on down without a fair
Unable to delay, my pain is running plenty by this game
It's dead meat now... I will show you how...
It's dead meat now... I will have it now
My footsteps are near, I tear away and bring again
The soul flies, they are inside, meat lacerated into your brain
I seek life... so don't you even try to get outside my reign
You run away... no matter where you go you know you shall be mine
I will listen... to the sound of your breath
My fast claws... they switch it to the death
While your meat... it's getting harder from the suffering
My footsteps are near, I tear away and bring again
The soul flies, they are inside, meat lacerated into your brain
My footsteps are near, I tear away and bring again
In a minute now I'll be feeling like a cold front cut through the room
You kindly wave I awkwardly smile not sure what to say
But it’s inevitable you bat yours eyes I crumble I always crumble
How are you you will say I exchange politely
Not again, no
I can’t do it I won’t do it Alright I’m so pathetic
No matter how far I distance myself
one glance you can pull me back in
In an instant my knees weaken my hands sweat and I begin to break
I'll give in when you pop the question your place or mine
How I wish I had the confidence to tell you I can’t be what you need
I can’t always be the skin that you wear
When you are cold at night
When no one else is there to make you alive
I know we are both one and the same.
But when it’s over the satisfactions gone
You taste what you want from me
You taste all of the gristle from the bones I need
To stand up to you, to live up to fools
It's too troubling
Can't take what you like from me
Can't take all of the vision that your money thieves
Don't be careless now, just a pretty babe
A cool covering
You can't hide, no
You can't hide the way you feel
You're just dead inside this meat
That you're smothering
You can't run, no
You just stumble, crash and cry
Without asking questions why
It's all crumbling
Dark eyes, beauty's never cheap
Dark hair, dark lips maybe that I want to cheat
See my sorry face in this love that fails
It's all good for me
Slick baby, that ain't worrying
Slick rage, strong is the ego that I want to test
In your head of lies, cut me down to size
It's all credible
You can't hide, no
You can't hide the way you feel
You're just dead inside this meat
That you're smothering
You can't run, no
You just stumble, crash and cry
Without asking questions why
Pure fear that you're falling for
These tears, thick in the sadness that was running before
Welling up in dread for a softer bed
I'm not worrying
Oh, you're so sane, all the lines you shed
So cool, so good, the picture for those crazy hoods
Got this gun for keeps, stick it in this meat
I'm not hurrying, hurrying
You can't hide, no
You can't hide the way you feel
You're just dead inside this meat
That you're smothering
You can't run, no
You just stumble, crash and cry
Without asking questions why
It's all crumbling
You can't hide, no
You can't hide the way you feel
You're just dead inside this meat
That you're smothering
That you're smothering
I love to smoke. I love to smoke and I love to eat red meat. I love to eat raw fucking red meat. Nothing I like better than sucking down a hot steaming cheese burger and a butt at the same time. I love to smoke. I love to eat red meat. I'll only eat red meat that comes from cows who smoke, ok!? Special cows they grow in Virginia with voice boxes in their necks. "[VB] Moo"
I tried eating vegetarian. I feel like a wimp going into a restaurant. "What do you want to eat sir? Brocolli?" Brocolli's a side dish, folks. Always was, always will be, ok? When they ask me what I want, I say, "What do you think I want!? This is America. I want a bowl of raw red meat right now. Forget about that. Bring me a live cow over to the table. I'll carve off what I want and ride the rest home! [Making riding noises]"
I gonna open up my own place. Open my own restaurant and get away from you people. I gonna open up a restaurant with two smoking sections; Ultra and Regular, ok? And we're not gonna have any tables or any chairs or any napkins. None of that pussy shit. Just a big wide open black space. And all we're gonna serve is raw meat, right on the bone! And only men are going to eat there, naked men, sitting around a big giant camp fire, and no men's room either. You have to piss, you mark your territory like a wolf! And if some guy has a heart attack from eating too much meat, fuck him, we throw him in the fire! More meat for the other meat-eaters! Yeah!
Scum who sit high, emanating bullshit
Empty vessels look up waiting to be sated.
With a callous disregard of human life
It grinds us up like meat.
Filled to the brim, going of like warheads
Exploding in hate, create our own extinction
With a callous disregard of human life
It grinds us up like meat.
With no foundation, no fools to hold high
Those who controlled us alongside us shall grind
Cheat us of a chance used up and spat out
Obeying scumbags
If I told you what's inside of your mind
Would you face it or tell me that I'm being unkind
Can you see just how your instincts are ruling your head
Do you know that if you follow them you're soon to end up dead
There is more to us than I'll kill you before you can kill me
It's there in each of us
I know it's here inside of me
I know fear way down deep
I smell fear, fresh meat
I'm not like you
I use what's in my head
I think
I know which side comes out ahead
I think
Anger bringing you down like an animal
Crawling around on the ground
I see you hanging there another helpless piece of meat
Unthinking empty head for all the other animals to eat
They smell your fear rabid dogs nipping at your feet
They will tear you down
Your brainless head will taste so sweet
I know fear way down deep
I smell fear, fresh meat
I'm not like you
I use what's in my head
I think
I know which side comes out ahead
I think
In your mind you draw that line
Are you gonna shine or will you flatline
Which side, you decide
Is it a gift, a curse, or is it something worse
A weapon, a tool, you a hero or a fool
I know fear way down deep
I smell fear, fresh meat
I'm not like you
I use what's in my head
I think
I know which side comes out ahead
Scanning the crowd for a beauty
My vision’s prepared by my lust
my senses are searching for signs
the only thing that I can trust
The scent of musk fills my nose
Hot eyes staring deep into mine
the steaming curves of her flesh
hit me right into my spine
Roaming through alleys in darkness
in search for pulsing blood
the smell of the living surrounds me
exciting my undead heart
The centuries building my memory
are wiped away by my greed
in the face of my paralysed prey
my cold brain is sceaming for meat
Meat to feed my body
Blood to fill my vein
Carnal need corrupts control
just to keep me sane
Meat to cause existance
Flesh to please my soul
Carnal greed reflects the hunger
that I can’t control
Feeling the hunger inside me
wakening savage desire
grabbing the fat-dripping pieces
roasted on hot glowing fire
biting and chewing the lumps
swallowing what used to live
achieving the sweet satisfaction
a well-filled stomache can give
Meat to feed my body
Blood to fill my vein
Carnal need corrupts control
just to keep me sane
Meat to cause existance
Flesh to please my soul
Carnal greed enjoys the hunger
Meeaaaaaaaaaaaat.....

I've got somethin' in my eye - I don't know what is is
I thought it might be a sty - cause all I see are pigs
High-lives rolling in the mud while all I do is try
To save my soul a better seat in the empty sky
Save me from myself
From everyone else pullin' me down the drain
We are nothing - we are meat in the dying game
Save me from my destiny
The weak link in the chain
We are nothing - we are meat - we are all the same
We are nothing - we are meat
Out for #1
In the grinder, in the hole
Running from the gun
I'll be looking down on you if I get that high
