1. Conserve Water, Preserve Life!

2. “THE WATER THAT WENT DOWN THE DRAIN”

3. Do we waste water? Do we think it’s free?
How it gets to us, those efforts we don’t see

5. In so many parts of the world you know
There’s severe water shortage and crops
don’t grow

6. Their livestock dies too
and there’s famine around

7. While for you and I,
precious water doesn’t count

8. So let’s look at some things we can do
every day
With a little thought and effort,
there’s so much we can save

9. Pour in water, but only as much as we drink
Stop filling the glass up to almost the brim

10. If we can’t drink it all,
cover the glass with a lid
When we’re thirsty next time,
we can drink from it

11. That way we won’t have to wash it each time
It’s a good way of saving both water and time

12. As for the water guests leave in the glass
It can surely be used for our indoor plants

13. When it comes to dishwashers and
washing machines
Let’s not turn them on for only a few things

15. Let’s turn off the tap while we’re brushing our teeth
Or shampooing our hair or while scrubbing our feet

16. As for our showers,
when we’re under
that spray
It’s not the place to
plan our life or our
day

17. While washing
our cars, let’s not
give them a bath
Let’s try to save
water when
doing this task

19. I could keep going on,
there are so many ways
If we think it’s
important,
so much water can be
saved
It’s really high time
that we lived our lives
On a conscious level,
with our conscience
alive

20. For be sure of one
thing –
that someone,
somewhere
Needs that water we
waste,
while we don’t care.
