Pick a Song:
Psolet on my plate
OO WA OO WA OO WA OO OO (X2)
Each day I go to breakfast
Put oatmeal in my bowl
Fill up my glass with O.J.
Eat half my jell roll.
I can't believe I took more than I ate
That's why I have so much psolet on my plate.
OO WA OO WA OO WA OO OO
Take two bites of an apple
Drop raisins on the trail
Pull breadcrusts off my sandwich
I say it's cause they're stale.
Each night I ask the stars in the sky (Hey stars)
Why does the food on my plate pile up so high?
OO WA OO WA OO WA OO OO
But now I'm feelin' happy
I'm peaceful and serene
I'm a ba'al bal tash'chit
Because my plate is clean!
It's true B I took no more than I ate
That's why you'll never find psolet on my plate.
OO WA OO WA OO WA OO OO (X2)
Habitat Song
by Bill Oliver
Chorus:
Habitat, habitat, have to have a habitat
Habitat, habitat, have to have a habitat
Habitat, habitat, have to have a habitat
Have to have a habitat to carry on.
The forest is a habitat, a multi-layered habitat
It's where the tallest trees are at,
it's where a bear can scratch her back,
It keeps the ground from rolling back,
renews the aquifers, in fact,
The forest is a habitat that we depend on.
Chorus #1
The river is a habitat, a flowing, changing habitat,
It's where the freshest water's at,
for people, fish, and muskrats,
But when the people dump the trash
the river takes the biggest rap,
The river is a habitat that we depend on.
Chorus #2
The ocean is a habitat, a dark and salty habitat,
It's where the deepest water's at,
it's where the biggest mammal's at,
It's where our future food is at,
it keeps the atmosphere intact,
The ocean is a habitat that we depend on.
Chorus #3
People are different than foxes and rabbits,
Affect the whole earth with our bad habits,
Better to love it while we still have it,
Or rat-ta-tat-tat, our habitat's gone
Chorus #4
Od Yavoh
Od Yavoh Shalom Alanue, Od Yavoh Shalom Alanue
Od Yavoh Shalom Alanue, Ve'al Koolam
Sallam, Alanue Ve'al Kol Ha'olam, Sallam Sallam
There will be peace among us, and for everyone.
Peace, over the whole world, peace. (Sheva, Israeli Band)
Gesher Tzar Me'od
All of the world is a very
narrow bridge.
The most important part
is not to be afraid
- Rabbi Nachman of Bratslav
Light One Candle
Light one candle for the Macabe Children
With thanks their light didn't die.
Light one candle for the pain they endured
When their right to exist was de-nied.
Light on candle for the terrible sacrifice
Justice and freedom demand.
Light one candle for the wisdom to know
when the peace makers time is at hand.
CHORUS:
Don't let the light go out.
It's lasted for so many years.
Don't let the light go out.
Let it shine through our love and our tears.
Don't let the light go out.
It's lasted for so many years.
Don't let the light go out.
Let it shine through our love and our tears.
Light one candle for the strength that we need
To never became our own foe.
And light one candle for those who are suffering
Pain we learned so long ago.
Light one candle for all we believe in.
Let anger not tear us a-part.
And light one candle to bind us to-gether
With peace as the song in our hearts.
CHORUS
Don't let the light go out.
It's lasted for so many years.
Don't let the light go out.
Let it shine through our love and our tears.
Don't let the light go out.
It's lasted for so many years.
Don't let the light go out.
Let it shine through our love and our tears.
CHORUS
And what is the memory that's valued so highly
That we keep it alive in the flame?
What's the commitment for those who have died
We cry out they have not died in vain?
We have come this far, always believing
That judgment will somehow prevail.
This is the burden! This is the promise!
and this is why we will not fail!
END CHORUS
Don't let the light go out.
It's lasted for so many years.
Don't let the light go out.
Let it shine through our love and our tears.
Don't let the light go out.
It's lasted for so many years.
Don't let the light go out.
Let it shine through our love and our tears.
Don't let the light go out!
Don't let the light go out!
Don't let the light go out!
Decomposition
Is this waste? Well I don't know;
One thing dies to let another grow.
This circle we see almost every day;
the name we call it is.........decay.
Chorus:
Well come on all you people, gather 'round
Breakdown and listen......
To decomposition:
Group 1: Muncha, muncha, muncha.....
Group 2: Decomposition, decomposition, decomposition.....
Group 3: I get down, I break down, I get.......
There are many kids of bugs;
Worms and snails and slimy slugs.
They are useful for me and you;
They help to make the soil.....Renew.
Chorus
Decomposition is a useful game;
A tree drops its leaves, but they don't stay the same.
A bug chews them up and spits them back out;
Making the soil for a new tree to sprout.
Chorus
Evil Waste
You've got to change your evil waste, baby,
Before the landfills are filled and closed.
You've got to change, baby,
Your wasting ways are growing old.
Chorus:
You must reduce it, reuse it, recycle today.
So tell your neighbors, your parents, do it today!
This can't go on; you know you've got to change.
When you're asleep, baby,
The faucets drip and the lights are on,
Water is life, baby,
And you know you're wasting energy.
Chorus
When you're at meals, baby,
Food you don't eat just goes to waste,
Breadcrusts and milk, baby,
Be careful what you put on your plate.
Chorus

You and I will change the world,
You and I, then everyone will join us.
Though it's been said before, that doesn't matter
You and I can change the world.
|
You and I will start from the beginning,
It will be difficult, but don't worry,
Though it's been said before, that doesn't matter
You and I can change the world.

All God's critters
Chorus:
All God's critter's got a place in the choir,
Some sing low and some sing higher,
Some sing out loud on the telephone wire,
And some just clap their hands, or paws,
or anything they got now.
Listen to the bass it's the one on the bottom,
Where the bullfrog groans and the hippopotamus
Moans and groans with a big to do
And the old cow just goes moo.
Chorus
The dog and the cats they take up the middle,
The hummingbird hums and the cricket fiddles,
The donkey brays, and the pony neighs,
And the old coyote howls.
Chorus
Listen to the top where the little bird's singing
On the melody with a high note ringing,
And the hoot owl hollers over everything,
And the jaybird disagrees.
Chorus
You see all God's critters got a place on the planet
If one doesn't show the whole choir's had it,
So listen real hard to all critter's songs
And our planet will sail along.
Chorus
Give a Little Back
D
Long before there were telephones and T.V.s
G A
God provided for every single need
D
Made the sun rise and set at the right times
G A
Created life out of every tiny
Bm F#m
Gave us Eden in which we could live
Bm F#m Em A
Only asked in return we promise to give . . .
D
A little back now!
Look around see the world I've created
It's for you and generations to come
Take care to guard all that lives on the planet,
Work of creation is never ever done
Simply caring for all that lives
Is our way of taking a moment to give . . .
A little back now!
CHORUS
D G D
L'ovda . . . to work the soil
A D
Ul'shomra . . . and guard the earth*
Times have changed movin' into the future
Runnin' fast we've got appointments to keep
We've got no time now, no left over energy
It's always build, harvest, tear down or reap
Some people say that they know how to live
Just keep on takin' with no intentions to give . . .
A little back now!
We throw away when we could recycle
And the trash just continues to mount
Pollute the air never thinkin' about it
But in the end we'll see every action counts
If we want to continue to live
We've gotta have the strength and the courage to give . . .
A little back now!
CHORUS
*"To work and to guard"
Genesis 2:15
Lo Alecha
It is not your responsibility to
complete the work.
But neither are you free to
walk away from it.
Rabbi Tarfon, Pirkei Avot
