Don’t Waste Stuff

Kids are always saying, tell me Mister G
What advice can you give to me?
I tell those kids have fun, climb trees
And I sing a little song that my Mama sang to me

Don’t waste stuff, not time not money
Don’t waste jokes, especially if they’re funny
Don’t waste laughter, don’t waste love
Whatever you do, don’t waste stuff

Don’t put the cat in a hot bubble bath
Don’t forget to brush, and to do your math
Don’t grow old without traveling around
It’s a big, wide world outside of your town

Don’t waste stuff, not paper not plastic
Turn out the lights, thanks that’s fantastic
A little every day is really quite enough
Whatever you do, don’t waste stuff

Don’t eat your cake, before you eat your peas
Don’t forget to say thanks, and to say please
Don’t go swimming with your snowshoes on
Don‘t throw a party on your neighbor’s lawn

Don’t waste stuff, not water not gas
Ride your bike or take the bus, it’ll be a blast
Eat all your veggies and your marshmallow fluff
Whatever you do, don’t waste stuff

We’re running out of oil, we’re running out of time
And we can’t run back to the starting line
So we’ll start where we are, that is good enough
It’s a beautiful day when we don’t waste stuff
Watch the problems melt away when we don’t waste stuff
Hip hip hooray we don’t waste stuff
