Going Green
Jody, age 9

Going Green takes us along on one girl’s dream about her family going green. Her dream takes green to the extreme – starting with recycling to hair turning green!

Lyrics

I’m walking it, not just talking it
Taking it seriously
Making changes, rearranging
It happened so easily

chorus:
I had the strangest dream
I was turning green
Not red or blue, or in between
It was a sight to see
My entire family
Everyone was going green

Me and Kermit, got a permit
And started recycling
First showed my mom,
Then my teachers at school
Now everyone is following

(chorus)

My mom’s teeth turned as green as a parakeet
And my brother’s hair turned as green as a frog can be
Everyone was going green

Me and Laura, once had a big red Ford explorer
But we traded it in
Now we ride our bikes to school
My little brother has a tricycle
And everyone is following
