Song: (Tune: “Mulberry Bush”)

This is the way we pick up trash,
pick up trash, pick up trash.
This is the way we pick up trash
To help our Mother Earth.

This is the way we turn off the light,
we turn off the light, we turn off the light,
This is the way we turn off the light,
To help our Mother Earth.

This is the way we plant a seed,
plant a seed, plant a seed,
This is the way we plant a seed,
To help our Mother Earth.
