SONGS

What Shall We Do With a Litter Dropper?

Circle Ten Council

(Tune: What Do We Do With a Drunken Sailor)

What shall we do with a litter dropper
What shall we do with a litter dropper
What shall we do with a litter dropper
Early in the morning?

Put them in the bin, let the garbage truck take them (say 3X)

Early in the morning.

What shall we do with the bottle smashers

Early in the morning?

Let the recycling truck take them (say 3 X)

Early in the morning.

What shall we do with the tin can tossers

Early in the morning?

Put them in the bin, let the garbage truck take them (say 3X)

Early in the morning.

What shall we do if they take no notice

Early in the morning?

Pitch right in and stop all littering, etc. (say 3X)

Early in the morning.

Recycle Song

By Sue Parr-Jourdain

Circle Ten Council

Tune of "Row, Row, Row Your Boat."

Pick, pick, pick it up
Put it in a can,

Don’t dirty up our land.

Paper, plastic and glass
We’re the solution, to stop pollution
It will be a blast!

Save Our Resources

Baltimore Area Council

Tune: Put on Your Old Gray Bonnet

Pep up your Cub Scout spirit,

And shout so they'll hear it.

Our resources must be saved today.

If we share, not borrow,

We can shape tomorrow,

And be proud we helped along the way.

Picking Up Litter

Baltimore Area Council

(Tune: I've Been Working On The Railroad)

I've been picking up the litter,

All the live long day;

I've been picking up the litter,

Just to have a place to play.

Can't you see the littler basket,

Sitting on the sidewalk there?

Every little bit will help us, If you just show you care.

Won't you pick it up? Won't you pick it up?

Won't you pick it up today?

Help us clean it up. Help us clean it up.

Help to clean the U.S.A.!

Bring Back a Clean World

Circle Ten Council

Tune: My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean

This song is in the CS Roundtable Leaders Guide for this theme, but Circle 10 has an extra verse so I would put it in Baloo. And even though my RT staff knows I have an aversion to songs based on “My Bonnie,” this one is too good to pass up. CD

The litter blows over the highway,
The litter blows over the park,
Unless we do something about it,
The world will be litterly dark.

Chorus –

Pick up, pick up,
Oh, pick up the litter you see, you see.
Pick up, pick up,
Oh, pick up the litter you see.

The cars that drive over the highway,
Are spewing exhaust in the air,
We're leading our world in extinction,
And yet just don't seem to care.

Chorus –

God gave us clean air for our breathing
But we just don't keep it that way,
Instead we pollute it from smokestacks
And breathe in the garbage each day.

Chorus –

Chicken Lips & Lizard Hips

Longhorn Council

Chorus:

Chicken lips and lizard hips and alligator eyes

Monkey legs and buzzard eggs and salamander thighs

Rabbit ears and camel rears and tasty toenail pies

Stir them all together; it's Mama's Soup Surprise.

Oh, when I was a little kid I never liked to eat,

Mama'd put things on my plate; I'd dump them on her feet,

But then one day she made this soup; I ate it all in bed,

I asked her what she put in it, and this is want she said.

Chorus:

I went into the bathroom and stood beside the sink,

I said I'm feeling slightly ill, I think I'd like a drink,

Mama said "I've just the thing, I'll get it in a wink,

It's full of lots of protein, and vitamins I think."
