Rain Forest Rap

By Elaine

I wake up in the mornin'

and see that I was snorin'

And look out the window

to see the worst thing though.

As the trees were striped clean

and industries like machines

cuttin' down the trees

as many as they please.

The trees were cut down

from my house to downtown.

I took a trip outside,

but looked to my surprise,

the big clean plains

stretched from here

to the Great Danes.

Hopin' it was a dream,

the trees bein' cut down

by man-made machines.

So I took a little walk

and had a little talk.

Next thing I know

I wasn't makin' any dough.

By the next day

I figured it out.

No wonder I shouldn't

have had a doubt!

I'm a logger, too.

I was the cause

of this problem!

I just finally opened

my eyes and saw that

I was the problem.
