This week in assembly we are singing a song by the Scottish band The Proclaimers called '500 Miles'. However, the words have been changed to be about being an eco school! Here are the lyrics to our eco version of 500 miles:
INTRO
1. When I wake up
Well I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the one
Who thinks about our world
2. When I get up
Well I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the one
Who knows what I can do
Chorus:
And I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to keep our forests nice and green
And to see our land look bright and clean
3.When I go out
Well I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the one
Who turns off all the lights
4.When I’m out there
Well I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the one
Reusing plastic bags
Chorus:
And I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to keep our forests nice and green
And to see our land look bright and clean
So don’t pollute it
Save the world
Don’t pollute it
Save the world
We’ve got to think of all the things we stand to lose X 2
INTRO
5.In the playground
Well I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the one
Who puts litter away
6.When I go home
Well I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the one
Who recycles and returns
I’m gonna be the one
Who recycles and returns (2nd time only)
Chorus:
And I would save 500 miles
And I would save 500 more
You’ve got to help me keep this world alive
We have to save the environment.
So don’t pollute it
Save the world
Don’t pollute it
Save the world
We’ve got to think of all the things we stand to lose X 4
And I would save 500 miles
And I would save 500 more
You’ve got to help me keep this world alive
We have to save the environment.
ECO!!!
