about

Sleazy garage rock about the myth that any of the millions of tons of plastic we throw into bins every day actually gets recycled.

lyrics

Plastic water bottles
Plastic shopping carts
Plastic bags for vegetables
Plastic credit cards
Individual hard-boiled eggs, shells removed in a plastic case
Toss it all in a plastic sack
Use it once, throw it away

Plastic Barbie dolls
Golden plastic locks
Bound with plastic zip ties and bands in a
Clear plastic box
This is the legacy we leave behind, Ken and Barbie, big wheels, G.I. Joes
The archaeologists shake their heads
They’ll find more plastic than they do bones

Plastic in my sushi
Plastic in my tea
Plastic in my Happy Meal
Plastic in my bloodstream
Tiny particles of polymer, so small that the eye can’t see
But it's everywhere, in your food and drink and air,
In your body every time you breathe

Plastic factories keep on making
Plastic every day
We throw it in the blue bins but the
Shit gets thrown away
Just put some dirt on it deep underground, it’ll break down in a few thousand years
Until then we’ll just try not to choke
Like the birds and the fish and the seals
