PLANET PLASTIC
WE NOW LIVE ON PLANET PLASTIC
COS THERES PLASTIC EVERYWHERE
THERES PLASTIC IN OUR OCEANS
COS NO ONE BLOODY CARES
PLASTIC SOUP THEY CALL IT
AND WE STILL EAT FROM PLASTIC BOWLS
WE ARE NOW THE PLASTIC PEOPLE
WE NOW HAVE PLASTIC SOULS
WE COULD WRAP THE WORLD IN PLASTIC
WITH JUST ANOTHER 5P BAG
YOU CAN SMELL THE PLASTIC POLLUTION
AND ITS ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU GAG
WE MIGHT BE THE GLADIATORS OF OUR TIME
NOW DELUDED DUMPING GRIME
IM NOW SURFING ON THE PEPTIDES
GASPING IN THE GLOOP
A CARBON CORAL CALAMITY
SWIMMING IN THE SOUP
MANS PACKAGING INSANITY
IM FLOATING ON THE WAVES OF DECEIPT
PRETENDING TO BE CLEVER
THERE IS PLASTIC DOWN OUR STREET
JUST SAY NO TO PLASTIC
JUST SAY NEVER EVER EVER
IT DOESN’T REALLY MATTER
IT DOESN’T LOOK THAT CLEVER
THE HARBOURS ARE FULL OF PLASTIC
OUR TURTLES SWIM IN FEAR
COS SOMEONE USES PLASTIC
AND ITS WRAPPED AROUND THE BEER
THE WILDLIFE EATS OUR PLASTIC
SO HAVE A LITTLE BASH
AT TRYING TO REDUCE THE PLASTIC
JUST THINK WHEN IT COMES TO TRASH
IF WE TRY TODAY
AND WASH AWAY THE TEARS
WE MAY NOT HAVE A PROBLEM
IN THE NEXT ONE THOUSAND YEARS
WHEN THERE’S COMMOTION IN THE OCEAN
AND PLASTIC RULES THE WAVES
WE’VE GOT TO START SOMEWHERE
TO PREVENT AN OCEAN FULL OF GRAVES
I REALLY HAD TO TELL YOU EXACTLY HOW I FELT
COS IM REALLY WORRIED
THAT THE PLANET WILL START TO MELT
IM GOING TO USE MY BRAIN
BUT I SAY THIS WITH TONGUE IN CHEEK
IM GOING GIVE UP USING PLASTIC
IM GOING DO THIS BY NEXT WEEK
THE DOLPHIN DANCE HAS ENDED
AND AS A TEAR ROLLS DOWN MY FACE
THIS IS SUCH A CALAMITY AND DISASTER
I WANT TO CHANGE THIS PLACE
SO TONIGHT LETS TRY LESS PLASTIC
AND MAYBE A CHANGE CAN START
WE NEED TO REDUCE OUR PLASTIC
AND THIS COMES STRAIGHT FROM THE HEART
SO LET THE FESTIVAL COMMENCE
AND GIVE A THOUGHT OR TWO
THINK ABOUT THE PLASTIC
IT’S FOR THE CHILDREN WHO WE LOVE
AS WELL AS ME AND YOU .
