| Plastic is a thing that we don’t even really need
|
| I got a problem with it 'cause it causes death at rapid speed
|
| And I know we used to use it, but I think it’s time to lose it
|
| 'Cause the damage that it’s causing to the Earth is so abusive
|
| Have you ever used a plastic bottle, where’d it go?
|
| Only 9% of plastic in America’s recycled
|
| Let me teach you about waste without wasting my breath
|
| In honor of the animals without any left
|
| Millions of them die every single year
|
| 'Cause they chocked on something long, thin and clear
|
| And the straw that you left in a mess on your desk
|
| Ended up on a beach in a seagull’s chest
|
| And let’s not forget the environment
|
| By the year 2050 scientists predict
|
| The ocean will contain more plastic than fish
|
| And that’s really not something I would wish
|
| Witness this damage, why do it?
|
| Destroy this planet, why do it?
|
| Witness this damage, why do it?
|
| This is the last straw
|
| Bright Fight one and all, ooh
|
| We got to fight
|
| I got a bright idea
|
| I got a fight in Me-Ya, ooh
|
| We’ve gone too far
|
| Let us destroy, destroy no more
|
| Imagine this, because it actually exists
|
| A state the size of Texas made of plastic
|
| And it’s hard to differentiate what’s actually food and what’s just a piece of
|
| plastic waste
|
| You’re hungry so you stuck you stuff your face full of plastic forks,
|
| and knives and paper plates
|
| And when you think you’re finally full you realize that you weren’t even eating
|
| food
|
| But, technically, your stomach’s full of junk that doesn’t decompose,
|
| and so you die and decompose
|
| And even when your corpse is gone and so are you bones
|
| The plastic is still there
|
| It never really goes away
|
| Keep making plastic and it’s here to stay
|
| There’s only so much the Earth can take
|
| So, I think it’s time to make a change
|
| There’s so many changes we can make
|
| Like reusable cups and straws
|
| Bring your own bags to grocery stores
|
| Try not to use anything disposable
|
| So many other options at your disposal
|
| I know it’s hard to give up a things that you’re so used to
|
| But it’s better for us all if you could learn how to reuse, dude
|
| That’s all I got to say about that
|
| P. S. Throw away your trash
|
| Witness this damage, why do it?
|
| Destroy this planet, why do it?
|
| Witness this damage, why do it?
|
| This is the last straw
|
| Bright Fight one and all, ooh
|
| We got to fight
|
| I got a bright idea
|
| I got a fight in Me-Ya, ooh
|
| We’ve gone too far
|
| Let us destroy, destroy no more |
