When I'm in the sudsy bathtub
giving myself a rub a dub dub
singing along to myself as I play
day after day after day after day
By the time I get down to my eyes ears and nose
I begin to wonder where that water goes
as I'm scrubbing away all down to my toes
where does that water take it, who knows?
And now that the water has helped me get clean
who'll be the water's washing machine?
when it slides down the drain it does not say goodbye now
it goes in a cycle, I've never asked just how?
And before it meets up with me again
don't ever say never, you'll be wondering when
all of a sudden, there's a drop on my nose
from a rain cloud above - that's the way that it goes
Or when I'm so thirsty I drink from the sink
where did it come from, just stop and think
not just from the rivers and glaciers you know
it comes from the oceans and ponds that we row in -
Around and around in an interesting cycle
where as much as we try to contain it, a dyke'll
be a great place for the water to change
from a liquid to gas then to liquid again
Around and around in an interesting cycle
where as much as we try to explain it, a hike'll
show you how both trees and plants recycle
this liquid to solid to form an icicle
Around and around they call it osmosis
without it the earth would be in a psychosis
osmosis is needed to keep water clean
put it back where it came from and to stop it from being
The mess that we make when we take it and use it
it's so hard when we're cleaning not to abuse it
So give it some thought when you drop each drop
down the drain don't let too much water get by you again!
We've got to be ware of the toxins from factories
that flush poisons and hurt our resources - the facts please!
the flow of the water from rain cloud to flora
the flow to the fauna and all you adore – a
Flow of the water from puddle to sky
The flow of the water to both you and I
In order to keep planet earth the great place it is
not just for you but for all she embraces
the zebra, the mangrove, the bird and the bee
The mouse and the mammoth, look around and you'll see
This planet is falling apart at the seams
we've got to do something, yes us human beings!
For every tomorrow, we have today
just filled with the chances to shout out and say...
Save precious water, recycle and reduce use!
