Pollution here
Pollution there
Pollution everywhere.
Turn around
Without a sound
Choking people
On the ground.
Pollution here
Pollution there
Pollution everywhere.
Every boat has got its sail
To keep it ‘bove the waters tail
But the whale, he had no fear...
Until pollution came so near.
Pollution here
Pollution there
Pollution everywhere.
Help Save the Earth
