Save the Life

The glorious lion's mighty roar;
Something you can't buy at an everyday store
The beautiful robin's light-heartening song;
Makes your body grow young and live long
The whale gives a deep bellow to the water;
something we should never slaughter

Keep all our animals alive;
They're not prepared for the roads we will drive
We're leading them to extinction, every single one;
and it will never end until they're all dead and done
We'll only regret at the end once they take their toll;
Of what we could have saved and of every lost soul

We chop down their trees for things as a toothpick;
which could probably be taken from even a random stick
We're taking their homes for our own needs;
while we could live without the way it will please
Clearing the forests and flattening the land;
Turning even the rocks to a coarse sand

The oceans were once clear, vast, and beautiful;
until that day we felt needful
to carry across cargo using harmful fuel;
bringing items by their beauty and value, like a jewel
Our accidents, however, even pose a great threat;
can act to a fish's life as a great fiery net
And as oil fills up their lungs as they breathe;
They die a great suffering collapse, or heave
