Don’t Throw It Away

Don't Throw It Away - Keb' Mo'

Lyrics by：Colin Linden/Kevin Moore

Composed by：Colin Linden/Kevin Moore/Charles Esten

Leo B had a big idea

Somethin' that would last for a million years

You see someday we will all disappear

But the big idea will still be here

You gotta use it again

Baby don't ya throw it away

Don't ya throw it away

Now who could imagine

Everything it would bring

You can turn that plastic into any ol' thing

It's so convenient you just can't beat it

'Til it get into ocean

And the fish start to eat it

You gotta use it again

Baby don't ya throw it away

Don't ya throw it away

Well now a turtle can't

Swim and a bird can't sing

When they're stuck in

The hole of a six pack ring

We got bottle and bags caps and cups

We got too much stuff we gotta clean it all up

You gotta use it again

Baby don't ya throw it away

Don't ya throw it away

Well the face of this planet as far as I can see

When it could use just a little plastic surgery

When Leo didn't know he was starting a mess

How it all turns out is anyone's guess

I use it all the time I must confess

But if I care a little more

I'll use a little less

You gotta use it again

Baby don't ya throw it away

Don't ya throw it away

'Cause it's a beautiful world

Baby don't ya throw it away
