We’ve polluted the water, we’ve polluted the soil,
We’ve polluted the air, with smoke, gas and oil
We’ve released toxins, herbicides and pesticides too
Now we fuss and complain about what someone should do
We point at big business and say they’re to blame
But we’re all just as guilty for causing this shame
For we all want perfection in whatever we buy
Now we must all pay the price, don’t blame the next guy
So let’s clean up the soil ,the air, and the streams
Let’s not poison our children with our greed and our dreams
Rich or poor, young or old, let us all do our part
If we all work together, we can make a new start
