Lyrics

WALKIN' PICKIN' PLOGGERS

they wake up every mornin' grab their little sticks
everyday, they walk and pick up butts and plastic bits
turtles, birds and fish they save, gather up the trash
keen as Osprey, eye on the prize,
hunting, grunting they are wise

they're walkin' pickin' ploggers sunrise to sunset
two miles down, ten to go, in the heat, quick quick slow slow,
along the road the trash will blow,
grab your friends, don't be shy,
flocks of Ibis standin' by

they spend their time on paradise,
cleaning up the shores
cause sea life as they see it, are mostly herbivores

they're walkin' pickin' ploggers sunrise to sunset
two miles down, ten to go, in the heat, quick quick slow slow,
along the road the trash will blow,
grab your friends, don't be shy, flocks of Ibis standin' by
