Paper Or Plastic
And It's Better for the Environment Too!(that's my real title!!)
If somebody asks you to place
a bag on your head. . . What disgrace!
You’re too chatty, I bet,
or maybe worse yet. . .
they might just hate seeing your face!
Choosing plastic I think you will hate
(though for stopping one’s talking it’s great).
Plastic over your head,
and you’re going to be dead.
Using plastic makes folks suffocate!
Here’s advice I'd give to you guys:
In a paper bag poke little eyes.
You’ll be able to view
things, but we won’t see YOU,
And above all, nobody dies!!
