Lyrics

[Sasquatch] Sasquatch, Sasquatch [Man] For years this legend has been told Of a creature seldom seen He leaves a footprint so immense It could make a grown man scream (Ahh) Sasquatch, Bigfoot, Yeti He goes by all those names But now there's something scarier And our world's not quite the same There are beasts who are leaving footprints That make Bigfoot's track look small And they're messing up our atmosphere So heed this wake-up call We call them carbon footprints And they're madе of CO2 And who's leaving these big footprints? Wеll, I'm afraid it's me and you So here's what to do and here's what to watch Don't be a carbon Sasquatch [Sasquatch] Sasquatch [Man] Now, first you have to know A carbon footprint's definition It's a way to measure how you help Make greenhouse gas emissions "Now, wait a minute," I hear you say [Boy] My footprint's not that big, no way [Man] Well, let's just see how your footprint grows As you move throughout your day First, you turn on your computer And play games for hours and hours Don't you know some chimney's spewing smoke To generate that power? Then you turn to television But you leave the PC running Your share of greenhouse gas adds up To a number that's quite stunning You gotta learn what to do and what to watch Don't be a carbon Sasquatch [Sasquatch] Sasquatch [Boy] A smaller footprint means less pollution [Sasquatch] Sasquatch [Boy] With a few small steps, we can find a solution [Man] It's time for soccer practice And mom will take you there by car But are you sure that's what you really need? Hey, the field is not that far You could run or walk to soccer practice And keep yourself in shape And then the car won't burn that fossil fuel Letting greenhouse gas escape Your breakfast, lunch and snacks and dinner Have consequences too With packaging and refrigeration You're gonna need a bigger shoe We buy so much imported food That comes from, oh, so far Try the farmer's market and get some food That's grown right where you are So now you what to do and what to watch To keep from being a carbon Sasquatch [Sasquatch] Sasquatch [Man] You can see the whole world's One big carbon stomping ground So to save the Earth, you've got to help To spread this word around Reduce, reuse, recycle And help our planet to rebound [Boy] A smaller footprint means less pollution With a few small steps, we can find a solution [Man] Now you know what to do and what to watch Don't be a carbon Sasquatch [Sasquatch] Sasquatch, Sasquatch [Boy] We all need a smaller footprint [Sasquatch] Sasquatch, Sasquatch [Boy] A smaller footprints mean less pollution [Sasquatch] Sasquatch, Sasquatch [Man] Don't be a carbon Sasquatch [Sasquatch] Sasquatch
