From Americas rocky mountain tops to the Himalayan snow capped peaks
These are things of nature that all of us should
Keep

Australia's barren outback, England's green and pleasant
hills
Nature free for all mankind who seek her gentle
thrills

From the Amazon's tropic forest to the Arctic's icy
plains
All are things of natural beauty if you travel at natures
pace

The azure blue seas of the Pacific isles, cruel dark seas of the southern cape
All placed there by natures hand, to be respected without
hate

Drab brown plumage of the desert vulture, bright birds of
paradise
Birds of every color, birds of every
Size

Scorpions of the desert sand and the Grey Atlantic
Seals
All put there for a reason that only nature can
reveal

Think about the lion, Africa's king of
Beasts
The soft eyed Chinese panda that our children find so
cute

Mountain tops and hidden valleys,Β Β vast lakes and rolling
seas
All a part of nature that should not be
abused

Animals, reptiles, birds put there for me and
you
They should be studied in the wild, not trapped inside a
zoo

We can't alter history or repair the damage that we've
caused
But we can try to stop the destruction of the world that's mine and
yours
