Thanks to Suzy and Johnny for taking steps to preserve the planet, one plastic bottle and aluminum can at a time… Thanks to Zapac for providing his rocking stems… Happy Earth Day, everyone!

LYRICS:

Suzy likes her water from the spring.
Municipal sources aren’t as clean.
Or so she has expressed;
She just cannot get refreshed
Unless she’s drinking out of polyethylene.

If Suzy doesn’t like tap water that is fine.
But she better not pollute this land of mine.
She can’t ignore the fact
Plastic bottles in the trash
Fester in landfills until the end of time.

Please don’t throw that plastic away.
Please don’t throw our planet away.
Put it in that green bin today.
Please don’t throw that plastic away.

Johnny shops for soda at the store.
He’s run out and now he thirsts for more.
He can’t resist a sale
On root beer and ginger ale.
Twenty dollars for five packs of 24.

That’s 120 aluminum cans
To clutter up our holes in the land.
Unless he puts them in the bin
To turn them into cans again.
I sure hope that that’s what Johnny plans.

Please don’t throw those cans away.
Please don’t throw our planet away.
Put them in that green bin today.
Please don’t throw those cans away.

Suzy sees that Brita ad on the tube.
Then she has a change of attitude.
Filtered water is OK.
Now she drinks it every day
From containers that get washed and reused.

Johnny resolves that this will be the year
He’s not ashamed to look in the mirror.
So his belly’s not so round,
He is cutting down
On all those cans of soda and root beer.

Please don’t throw that plastic away.
Please don’t throw those cans away.
Put them in that green bin today.
Please don’t throw our planet away.
