A Million Straws

from Waste Free Wanda by Waste Free Wanda

/

about

Track 6 in the Waste Free Wanda musical.
It's milkshake day at school and Wanda is given a disposable cup with a plastic straw in it. Seeing everyone with their milkshakes inspires Wanda to speak up to her entire class, making them aware of how destructive the straws are to wildlife, the ocean and the planet, as she inspires change.

lyrics

Use your voice
Everybody make your choice
Be the change
Your mind can rearrange

Save our seas
Leave some clean soil for our trees
Just say no
Bag the habit let it go

Oh a million straws
They go out our doors
They go round and round the planet
End up on the ocean floors

And so now’s the time
Throw my hands up I am fine
I don’t need a straw today
I got the planet on my mind

And tomorrow
We’ll need this world tomorrow
So let’s be kind

For just one drink,
Pouring plastic down the sink
To the sea,
Oh but it doesn’t have to be

Think ahead
All the wisdom that’s been shared
Use your mind
Help destruction
