Animals are Cut in Two Lyrics
Animals are cut in two for passing through
Make room for the burning torch and smoking oven
Lord, because you keep your promise
You know what they’ll do
The same thing that happened to the animals
Will have to happen to You
Make room for the burning torch and smoking oven
Lord, because you keep your promise
You know what they’ll do
The same thing that happened to the animals
Will have to happen to You

This song is so quirky and unusual. I think it is significant that the "You" is capitalized (unless that's a typo), because that would signify God. It seems odd to me...almost like a threat to God from man?

John ringhofer (half-handed cloud) is a vegetarian. This song has something to do with that, I think.

it's referring to the old testament sacrifices which were a symbol of Jesus' sacrifice for the world. that is why the You is capitalized.

The song is about God's covenant with Abraham, and as mentioned above, that God's covenants with man all foreshadowed the coming of Jesus Christ.
