Please pick a line or two from Paul McCartney’s song ‘Meat Free Monday’ (or pick every line if you want!) and take a photo of yourself with it. You could write the words on a piece of paper; draw them in the sand; make them out of fruit and veg; make something with the words on; do something on your computer – remember, the more creative your photo, the more chance you have of it being included. Feel free to involve friends, family and colleagues too! We will pick our favourites and turn them into a video for the song.
The lyrics are provided below (plus a few extra lines for when Paul isn’t singing).
Click HERE to download the song.
The video will be posted soon on meatfreemondays.com so remember to keep checking back!
WHAT TO DO:
1. Pick as many lines as you wish from the lyrics below – including (Intro), (Instrumental) and (Fade) – and take a photo of yourself with it (one line per photo, please!).
2. Post your photo on Instagram or Twitter using the hashtag #MeatFreeMonday

MEAT FREE MONDAY LYRICS
(Intro)
Meat Free Monday
It’s a fun day
And it’s happening all around the world
Meat Free Monday
It’s a fun day
And it’s happening all around the world
Think about the future
How the world will be
If we don’t do something
We face calamity
Think of greenhouse gases
Melting polar ice
Ocean levels rising
Better not think twice
Meat Free Monday
It’s a fun day
And it’s happening all around the world
Meat Free Monday
It’s a fun day
And it’s happening all around the world
Think of too much livestock
Warming up the land
Gotta think of answers
Gotta have a plan
Think about the future
How the world will be
If we don’t do something
We face calamity
Meat Free Monday
It’s a fun day
And it’s happening all around the world
After Sunday
Meat Free Monday
And it’s happening all around the world
(Instrumental)
Meat Free Monday
It’s a fun day
And it’s happening all around the world
Meat Free Monday
It’s a fun day
And it’s happening all around the world
Meat Free Monday
It’s a fun day
And it’s happening all around the world
(Fade)
