The Banana Slug Song
You know I love my baby
I like the way that she hugs
People don’t understand
She’s a banana slug
G - C - D - C -/(4x)
She’s got just one foot
But she ain’t got no toes
She just hangs out in the forest
Helpin’ it decompose
Banana slug Ba na na na na na na (repeat)
Ba-na-na-slug!
G - C - D - C -/(2x) D - - -/D - - -/D - - -/D7 - - -
The way you shake your antenna
You know it gives me such bliss
C’mon, c’mon, c’mon banana slug
And let me give you a kiss
Oh when you slide through the forest
You know you look so fine
C’mon, c’mon, c’mon banana slug
And let me feel your slime
Now I’m broke up about my baby
Found out she doesn’t need me
She told me just the other night
That she is also a he. Hermaphroditic she’s a...
Now some folks think that she’s gross
But I don’t hear that jive
‘Cause if it weren’t for my baby
This forest might not survive

I am a Worm (Gusano)
I am a worm
The wondrous worm
It's down under
I love to squirm
To eat the dead
And the living's my toil
And what comes out makes magnificent soil
Am/E//Am//F/Am E Am E Am
Chorus:
Gusano nonono nono nonono nono nononono si
Gusano nonono nono nonono nono nononono si
I aerate the earth as I tunnel and squirm
I’m proud to be called a worm
C G F E/C G F E/F G C D/F G Am
Our tunnels flood
It rains all night
Come up for air
We're killed by light
When people die worms attend
Though it’s dull
But no one comes to a worms’ funeral
Chorus
A robin's cute
Have you not heard?
Of the massacres
By the early bird
We do such good
From us you could learn
But you make us fish bait in return
Chorus

Termite Flatulence
G C D
Went down to dee tropics today
Where dee rainforest is being stripped away
Everyday we kill many species of plants
The only thing left is gonna be termite flatulence.
Chorus:
Termite flatulence
Let the rainforest have a chance
Stop termite flatulence
People who need money cut down dee trees
To raise dee cows for you and me
When you're eating hamburger you should know
You're eating the rainforest and making it go...to flatulence
Chorus
When dee trees cut down dee stumps dey stay
There's a lotta dead wood left round to decay
Dee termites go to dee wood to munch
For dere termite breakfast, dinner and dere termite lunch...flatulence
Chorus
Bridge:
Group 1:Hey Mon, Group 2:Hey Wo-mon
Leader: Help the rainforest stay
Group 1:Hey Mon, Group 2:Hey Wo-mon
Leader: Don't throw diversity away
(Do these with hey mon's too:)
It's not just the trees -----It's the cure to disease
If you want to do good -----Don't buy tropical wood
It's affecting us all ----- Hear the flatulence call
Chorus
You might wonder what you can do all alone
Don't eat cheap beef till the cows come home
If we all eat more Brazilian nuts
It might slow down all the termite butts... and stop flatulence

We Don't Wanna Go
(Dino Graduation Song)
The Cenozoic is here, our senior year must now end - Oh no, oh, no
Sign my dino yearbook please my freshman mammalian friend - Oh no, oh, no
Were so embarrassed that this could occur
We're being replaced by a ball of fur
Rulers of Cretaceous, Jurassic, Triassic
The only Dinos left are gonna be plastic
C - Am - G - F G/ C - Am - G - F G/C D/Bb C/C D/Bb G
Chorus:
Nah, nah, nah, nah, - Hey hey - We don't wanna go (repeat)
C - D - F - C F G/ (2X)
One hundred forty million years, but soon we'll be history - Oh no, oh, no
How did we die - the world's biggest murder mystery - Oh no, oh, no
Was it an asteroid or something else that occurred
Or did we go on to college and evolve into birds?
The last laugh's on you humans, think you're Sherlock Holmes
The only clues we'll leave will be a pile of bones
Chorus
So thanks Thecodonts, but now we're sharing your fate - Oh no, oh, no
The mammals will go on, but the dinos must graduate - Oh no, oh, no
Bridge:
We could've been smart, but instead we got big
Some small ones will survive ‘cause they can dig
It's hard to understand why some live and some die
T. Rex will be dead and a cow will arrive.
Am - F - / Am - Bb -/Am - f - / G - G7

Food Chain Gang
Chorus:
We're the food chain gang (repeat)
We connect everything (repeat)
Food chain can't break it or ya know
The pull affects the others and down we all will go
We're the food chain gang (repeat)
D- - -//C- G -G - - -/D - - -
Well the chain starts out with an oak leaf in the sun
Making carbohydrates and havin' lots of fun
Caterpillar eats it then turns into a moth
It ends up on a log in the belly of a frog
D - - -/C- G -/D - - -/C-G-/
Chorus
Now the log was sittin' by the shores of a lake
The frog became a dinner for a sneaky gopher snake
Now that snake thinks she's cool cause she's cold-blooded
Long comes racoon eats our reptile bud
Chorus
Bridge:
Please let me explain. Everyday again and again
You're a link in a bunch of food chains
Bm - - -/G - - -/ bm - - E
Racoon was sittin' just washin' his food
Bobcat came and ate him'cause she was in the mood
The bobcat died, she died of old age
The insects ate her - into soil she decayed
E - - -/D - A -/E - - -/D - A -/
Chorus
