I'm very useful Just wait - you'll see I need your approval Please, I plea I swear that I'm vital I'll present my case You'll want my survival So please just sustain Me Somehow, suddenly I'm a specialist in The Blue-Booted Bee Who's going extinct They look super neat But don't really do much Their buzzing a treat But they're sharp to the touch You are my funding As I try to convince You to care about my Specialty Before I have to Rededicate to another Declining species

Blue-Booted Buzzing Bee
I'm very useful Just wait - you'll see I need your approval Please, I plea I swear that I'm vital I'll present my case You'll want my survival So please just sustain Me Somehow, suddenly I'm a specialist in The Blue-Booted Bee Who's going extinct They look super neat But don't really do much Their buzzing a treat But they're sharp to the touch You are my funding As I try to convince You to care about my Specialty Before I have to Rededicate to another Declining species
I saw something the other day that basically said "Imagine you're a specialist on an endangered species that really doesn't contribute much to the environment, and you are trying to acquire funding to protect said species. Trying to prove to a board that your animal contributes something. Anything. Trying to justify the existence of an animal you know all about, you know is dying, yet no one could care less." It broke my heart.
