Lyrics
Get up at the crack of dawn.
I stand and stretch and yawn.
There's garbage on my lawn!...I hate pollution.
Some bozo in his car.
Just finished a candy bar.
Ooh that wrapper sure went far.
I hate pollution.
Something smells, P.U.
It's coming from my shoe.
Awk, I stepped in a pile of poo.
I hate pollution.
There's litterbuggers everywhere.
Polluting up the land.
But someday it has got to stop.
We've got to take a stand, Vito.
There's something I gotta address.
My neighborhood's a mess.
I really must confess...I hate pollution
It's really getting ruff.
Wid all dis toxic stuff.
Waste management aint enuff?...Hey, don't go dere.
When we run outta room.
Are we gonna pollute da moon?
Bad bing a badda boom...I hate pollution.
There's factories a belchin' filth.
All smoggin up the sky.
And garbage on the ocean floor.
That just will never die.
I was like, surfing in the deep blue.
And I waded through some goo.
And all I could say was ewww...
Dude, I hate pollution.
With the ozone layer depleted.
Like, sunscreen's always needed
I feel like I been cheated.
Whoa, what's up with the pollution, dude?
If you like the planet you're on.
Before it's completely gone.
Let's get together. C'mon, and say...
I hate pollution.
The Earth is a beautiful gem in space.
And it's something that, you see.
The manufacturer won't replace.
If we void the warranty.
Man I hate pollution.
It's makin me sick.
There's relaly only one true solution. That'll do the trick.
Revelation 11:18. Look it up.
