about

I am a passionate about re-cycling. Every week without I put my bin out before the councils re-cycle police arrest me.

The rhymes are awful in this song - rubbish in fact!

lyrics

Recycling Song

By Bill Bates

I’m an environmental person
More friendly than Al Gore
I’ve recycled everything I've had and then recycled more
I put my bottles in the bottle bank
Rrecycle my magazines
Then turn them it into toilet rolls
So even my bottoms green

But I won't recycle you
No matter what you say
No matter what you do
I won't recycle you

I’ve a Solar powered TV that don’t work when the weathers dull
My car runs on fertilizer and I keep the tank quite full
I’ve a Wind farm in my garden
And my compost is no trouble
And my clothes and shoes and hats
are all biodregrada-bubble

But I won't recycle you
No matter what you say
No matter what you do
I won't recycle you

I’ve reduced my carbon footprint
My emissions are off-set
My light bulbs save me energy
but I wont fly in a jet
I’ve seen the seen ice caps melting
and the hurricanes a-storming
But this summer I’ll be buggered if I've seen any global warmin’

But I won't recycle you
No matter what you say
No matter what you do
I won't recycle ....

Middle 8
All polar bears and dolphins
they’ll soon disappear
and soon there will be no more fishin’
And we’ll start to moan when there ain't no more ozone
if we don’t reduce our co2 emisshin


You might think song is rubbish
But it shouldn’t go to waste
For that would be ironic
When I’m trying to save human race
You can take as the words and use them all again
For that would be re-cycling
and the earth would stay your friend


But I won't recycle you
No matter what you say
No matter what you do
I won't recycle you

Bill Bates Royal Leamington Spa, UK

I am a Warwickshire based singer songwriter and I perform my songs in folk clubs and festivals. My songs are (almost) autobiographical and often about the ordinary things in life, such as caravan holidays, recycling and a song about a Mars Bar party (where people are supposed to have took their clothes off!) Some of my songs are funny, other songs are serious; either way I hope you like them! ... more
