RECYCLE RAP by Dana Lyons |
CHORUS: Recycle, recycle, rip-rip recycle Recycle cans, recycle glass Recycle at home, recycle in class Reduce your garbage, reuse your mind Recycle, recycle, rip-rip recycle I was walking down the beach on top of the world When I met the eyes of a beautiful girl I walked up to her and asked her her name As I threw my soda in the garbage can She said, "Hey man, what'd you do that for? When you throw things away, we got to make more!" Reduce, reuse, again and again That's the only way you're gonna be my friend Well I felt a little pale and I felt a little thinner So I said, "Hey recycling girl, how 'bout some dinner?" She said, "I'm in a vegetarian mood, I feel like a little vegetarian fast food." I said, "I know the perfect place for you, they got veggie burgers with a slice of tofu." But when the man at the counter said "plastic or paper?" Recycling girl said, "We don't want neither!" Reduce, duce, duce, duce, duce Reduce, duce, duce, duce, duce Then she pulled out her own plate and mug Said to the man, "Hey, fill this up-I want a soy milk shake with a lot of banana" "And a napkin for me!" she said, "Use your bandana!" So I said, "He recycling girl, let's talk about love" She said, "First I think you better join my club" There's a club for the dolphins, a club for the trees A club for the birds and a club for the bees If you want to stick with me you got to be a doer You can't drink the water when the river is a sewer You get nothing done just sittin' in the bleachers You got to play hard to save the other creatures 'Cause the earth is our home, the earth is our mother Yes I'm talking to you sisters and I'm talking to you brothers If you want a healthy place to meet a boy or girl You gotta dance, recycle, work to save the world Recycle, recycle, rip-rip recycle! |
