Song Information:
This song is fairly simple, but heres a brief explanation of the terms involved:
Roundup - herbicide, kills weeds, grasses and amphibians.
Monsanto - local chemical company that manufactures Roundup, and also genetically alters crops so that Roundup can be applied, killing everything but the genetically engineered crop.
Frogs, toads, salamanders - innocent amphibians, bellwethers of our future.
Lyrics:
Soon all the frogs will be dead/
Soon all our lawns will be green/
Soon all the crops will have new genes/
Soon all the frogs will be gone/
Theres a company in my backyard/
Monsanto is its name, Ooooh/
They make a spray that kills the weeds/
And anything that gets in its way/
Anything that gets in its way/
Roundup the frogs/
Roundup the toads/
Roundup the salamanders!/
Roundup the weeds/
Roundup the world/
One day well all be genetically altered/
(Interlude)/
Gather them two-by-two/
Take them all with you/
Take them far away/
Let them live one more day/
Theres a company in my backyard/
Monsanto is its name, Ooooh/
They make a spray that kills the weeds/
And anything that gets in its way/
Anything that gets in its way/
Roundup the frogs/
Roundup the toads/
Roundup the salamanders!/
Roundup the weeds/
Roundup the world/
One day well all be genetically altered
Soon all the frogs will be dead/
Soon all our lawns will be green/
Soon all the crops will have new genes/
Soon all the frogs will be/
One day the frogs will be/
Someday we all will be gone.///
Song Lyrics:
Lyrics: ROUNDUP THE WORLD
Soon all the frogs will be dead
Soon all our lawns will be green
Soon all the crops will have new genes
Soon all the frogs will be gone
Theres a company in my backyard
Monsanto is its name, Ooooh
They make a spray that kills the weeds
And anything that gets in its way
Anything that gets in its way
Roundup the frogs
Roundup the toads
Roundup the salamanders!
Roundup the weeds
Roundup the world
One day well all be genetically altered
(Interlude)
Gather them two-by-two
Take them all with you
Take them far away
Let them live one more day
Theres a company in my backyard
Monsanto is its name, Ooooh
They make a spray that kills the weeds
And anything that gets in its way
Anything that gets in its way
Roundup the frogs
Roundup the toads
Roundup the salamanders!
Roundup the weeds
Roundup the world
One day well all be genetically altered
Soon all the frogs will be dead
Soon all our lawns will be green
Soon all the crops will have new genes
Soon all the frogs will be
One day the frogs will be
Someday we all will be gone.
