But what became of baby-dyke Barbie?
Or for that matter her PVDC hair?
Or the box that she came in
Or the bag she came home in
Or the bin she was thrown in
We may purge and disown
But these moments are STILL HERE
Each hilarious fake dog poo - still here
Every smashed Buckeroo - still here
Deely boppers and cherished space hoppers still here
Shrinky Dinkies, spokie dokies, Tinkky Winkies broken still here
Tamagotchis
Each defiled Action Man it's still here
Somewhere still on this planet still here
And the eyes and the ears still heeeeee-eeeeeee-eeeeee-eeeeere
And the moustache and the feet of mr. potato head
Though not the actual potato
cause that's biodegradable... so it's fine...Just play with potatoes children!
Each plastic bottle you put ya lips to - still here
That White Lightning you sicked through - still here
Tic tacs, pixie sticks, takeaway coffee fixes still here
Kwenchy Kups you sunk with your dairy lea dunkers (I look at you accusingly, you look sheepish) still here it's true
6 billion tonnes of plastic sack-age still here
And that's just from one Amazon package!
Each piece of plastic through your hand will
Still be here in some great landfill or
Floats around with the sad, lost fish in the ocean
Every dayglo bright orange swimming bag - still here
That you and each of your friends had - still here
Rainbow Brite and her STUPID horse Starlight still here
And NO, I'm not still BITTER that I wasn't given a
GUN!
All the gum! all the tinsel, each promotional pen!
All the tape, every chapstick, all the green army men
Every plastic toggle still here, gonks will...
(great pacific cabbage patch kids- still here - , sending our trash to Malaysia and Vietnam tips - all the rubbish goggles still here every game of Boggle will...)
Still be here in some great landfill or
Floats around with the sad, lost fish in the ocean un - un - un
and on
and on
and on
and on
and on
and on ...
