The Lorax: Revisited

While individual action is good and dandy,
You have to be a citizen if you want to be handy.
Riding a bike, planting some trees;
That’s a good start, but it won’t save the wallabies.

Gather your friends, start a movement,
This is the true road to improvement.
Take some action, find your gumption,
Let’s steer away from consumption.

Take a step back and look all around,
Solutions are here, they need to be found.
Two heads are better than one, five better than four;
To work towards a bright future, with possibilities galore.

Your government, that’s who you should ask;
So far, they haven’t been up to the task.
“Please, do you have any good ideas?
The world is warming up, from here to Tanzania!”

Don’t wait until you’re twenty or thirty,
By then, the air will be much too dirty.
Be strong and make your voice be heard;
After all, what’s wrong with getting the Earth insured?

So perk up your ears for here is what I recommend;
Mother Nature is our buddy, and it is she whom we must defend.
For without her there would be no mountains or the deep blue sea,
Now start a revolution, aujourd’hui!
