To keep our world a special place
We need to reduce the amount we waste
So many things we throw away
Can be reused in other ways

Take a cardboard box build a rocket ship
Blast off with friends on an outer space trip
Next rinse out your used bottles and cans
Now you’ve all turned into a marching band

R-E-C-Y-C-L-E; recycle, recycle with me,
R-E-C-Y-C-L-E, recycle with me
Imagination’s all it takes
Recycle; recycle with me
Imagine what we will create?
Recycle and you will see
Recyclers you and me (2nd time through only)

When your socks wear out with holes in them
Add some buttons, you’ve got new puppet friends
Newspapers great for paper mache
Makes a great piñata for a friends birthday

Some cans and string make stilts for feet
You can stomp around to this rhythm and beat
Roll up some junk mail into a cone
Now you’ve got your very own megaphone

Recycled sounds are what we hear
Everybody’s smiling ear to ear
It’s your turn to jam along
‘Cause we all play a special part in this song!
