(CNSNews.com) - "Click it, flip it, turn the handle to the right, turn off the water, twist the handle real tight."
So begins a song about climate change, available for downloading from the EPA's Web site. The EPA says we should "blast out" the song at our Earth Day celebrations -- "because if this won't save the planet nothing will."
The song tells children, "The climate is changing and thats a fact, bears dont know when to take a nap, On top of that it wont be cool when the flood waters rise and mosquitoes rule."
According to the Washington Times, the song was recorded by Ted Coopwood of the EPA's Office of Childrens Health Programs, who has written a number of raps intended to galvanize kids to take an interest in the environment.
The lyrics are as follows:
Come on and Click it, flip it, turn the handle to the right, turn off the water, twist the handle real tight. Slip on your sneakers, lace em up tight, leave the car parked you know thats alright. Public transportation is the way to go, its one of the ways to keep emissions low, you can ride your bike, instead of the car, if we save on fuel then well all go far.
I said Click it, flip it, turn the handle to the right, turn off the water, twist the handle real tight. Slip on your sneakers, lace em up tight, leave the car parked you know thats alright. Public transportation is the way to go, its one of the ways to keep emissions low, you can ride your bike, instead of the car, if we save on fuel then well all go far.
You can pick up paper and recycle it too, and there are many other things that you can do. You can click off the game boy, flip off the light, while youre brushing your teeth, turn the handle to the right. Close the fridge door - keep it shut tight, no food has been added since the middle of the night. A 5 minute shower is all thats needed to keep energy from being depleted. A long sleeve sweater is what I know will keep you toasty and the fuel bills low. Plant a tree in your neighborhood, besides giving shade you know it looks real good.
I said Click it, flip it, turn the handle to the right, turn off the water, twist the handle real tight. Slip on your sneakers, lace em up tight, leave the car parked you know thats alright. Public transportation is the way to go, its one of the ways to keep emissions low, you can ride your bike, instead of the car, if we save on fuel then well all go far.
The USA is where we are to kick a new trend and to raise the bar. The climate is changing and thats a fact, bears dont know when to take a nap, On top of that it wont be cool when the flood waters rise and mosquitoes rule. Its time to get off the couch and start to move.
Come on and Click it, flip it, turn the handle to the right, turn off the water, twist the handle real tight. Slip on your sneakers, lace em up tight, leave the car parked you know thats alright. Public transportation is the way to go, its one of the ways to keep emissions low, you can ride your bike, instead of the car, if we save on fuel then well all go far.
Come on and Click it, flip it, turn the handle to the right.
Issa needs to start with hearings on how much money the Obama Administration is spending to propagandize us
The NY subway system was built and operated by a private company that turned a profit. Then the government took it over
You’ll hear even worse rap while riding public transportation.
