The Planet Saver (77)

The Planet Saver (77)
1
I’m a planet-saving person
So a most unusual man
And I’m highly motivated
To achieve the best I can

But world saving is expensive
Everybody needs a hand
If you care about this planet
Then why not give me a grand?
2
I’m a very busy person
I have so much work to do
There’s a forest to be planted
And some oceans to clean too

If we are to save the rivers
That are in a dreadful state
Then dig deep into your pockets
Say two grand would be just great
Chorus
Planet-saving is expensive
People just have no idea
By nature I am frugal
How I hate the taste of beer

It’s not easy cleaning oceans
Planting forests is hard too
Believe me, I am wasted
So the meadows, I leave you
3
I’m a planet-saving person
Yet most days I work alone
I just need a small donation
And the loan of your iPhone

Well I need to stay connected
As most people will agree
As I try to clean the water
That is flowing in the sea
4
So be generous with your money
Let us save the world, my friend
From the usual high polluters
Chasing their next dividend

Money needs a social target
Rather than some Cadillac
To pollute our holy planet
Worse than any maniac
Chorus
Planet-saving is expensive
People just have no idea
By nature I am frugal
How I hate the taste of beer

It’s not easy cleaning oceans
Planting forests is hard too
Believe me, I am wasted
So the meadows, I leave you

The End
