Lyrics:
RECYCLE WRAP
by Dana Lyons, copyright 1992
I was walking down the beach on top of the world
When I caught eyes with a beautiful girl
I walked up to her with a can in my hand
And threw the pop can into the garbage can
She said Hey boy, What'd you do that for
When you throw things away you've got to make more
Recycle, reuse again and again
That's the only way you're going to be my friend
Recycle, recycle . . .
CHORUS:
Recycle cans, recycle glass,
Recycle at home, recycle in class
Reduce your garbage of every kind
Reuse everything, reuse your mind!
Recycle, recycle . . .
Well I felt a little pale and I felt a little thinner
So I said hey recycler, I'll take you out to dinner
She said I'm in a vegetarian mood
I'd like a little vegetarian fast food
I said I know the perfect place for you
They've got cashew burgers with a slice of tofu
But when the man at the counter said styrofoam or paper
Recycling girl says we don't want neither . . .reduce . . .
Then she pulls out her own plate and a mug
Gave it to the man and said fill this up
I want a soy milk shake with a lot of banana
And a napkin for me, she says use your bandanna
Recycle, recycle . . .
CHORUS
So I said hey recycler, let's talk about love
She says first I think you'd 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've got to be a doer
You can't drink the water when the river is a sewer
You get nothing done just sitting in the bleachers
We've got to play hard to save the other creatures
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 a girl
You'd better dance, recycle, work to save the world . . .
Recycle, recycle . . .
