Doing My Bit (Environment)
I’m much too young to know what’s meant
when people say ‘environment’
they look so cross and some look sad
and some just say ‘it’s all gone bad,’
but back at home I know what’s right
impatient for the start of night
I leave a dish for my hedgehog’s tea
that’s what ‘environment’ means to me.
when people say ‘environment’
they look so cross and some look sad
and some just say ‘it’s all gone bad,’
but back at home I know what’s right
impatient for the start of night
I leave a dish for my hedgehog’s tea
that’s what ‘environment’ means to me.
