Plastic country In The sea (GPGP) Plastic was fantastic Not so much no more It’s filling up our oceans It’s pushing at our door We say I’m only one It’s truly not my fault But it was only lots of ones That started this assault. GREAT PACIFIC GARBAGE PATCH IT GOES BIGGER EVERYDAY GREAT PACIFIC GARBAGE PATCH A PLASTIC COUNTRY IN THE SEA Plastic goes into our Ocean Ends up in the ocean Fish eat this plastic Then so do we. . . . Plastic’s in our food chain The solution must be Stop single use plastic And live to be free. CHORUS The laysan Albatross skim Surface to feed . . . Mistake floating plastic For the food that they need They fly great distances and They Feed chicks our chuck. . . Outa sight, outa mind Our poisonous muck. Chorus There are many more of theses islands And they have this garbage too You think that what you don`t see Won`t harm you too. Chorus

Plant A Tree 04:53
PLANT A TREE TAKE YOUR TIME AND LISTEN TO THE WORDS BECAUSE THE EARTH IS NOW NEEDING OUR HELP THERE ARE PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD THAT CUT & BURN DOWN TREES FOR DIFFERENT REASONS BUT LITTLE DO THEY KNOW OF THE IMBALANCE THAT THEY CAUSING Do we tell our kids what we saw Tell them what was here before Those responsible should step aside Not head in the sand , No try to hide Our elected won`t do a thing They`re holding on to their money string They have no answers , they give excuses They`re running out of their many uses PLANT A TREE /TRY IT NOW /PLANT A TREE /DO IT NOW The worlds in chaos, we burned it down The forests go silent, there ain’t no sound The fish don’t swim, the whales don’t sing But the CEO just bought more bling We made the mess that’ll kill us all Money and politics just try to stall The time is over to live rent free They set it up, we take the fall Life is one big shopping mall Pay our dues and save the Forests The media are all owned and bought Few writing with independent thought We`re taught to trust and question not We follow blindly at a trot It`s time to wake up and think for ourselves Or take our place with the trolls and elves Our choice decides what`s on the shelves Our choice decides what`s on the shelves PLANT A TREE /TRY IT NOW /PLANT A TREE /DO IT NOW WE ALL HAVE OUR OWN THINGS TO DO SOME OF US TRY AND SOME OF US DON`T GIVE A DAMN I ASK WHERE WOULD WE BE WITHOUT VEGETATION AND IF WE DESTROY THE FORESTS WE BE WALKING AROUND WITH OXYGEN TANKS Double Chorus
