Anti-Litter Song

This is a song that I wrote a chorus and few verses of and then lost :( But the premise is that having become more and more tolerant and more and more open-minded as I grow up (which is no bad thing), and as you realise how subjective things such as right and wrong are and how incredibly complex most polemic topics are, there's only really one thing left in life (or there was at the time I wrote this) that I can feel completely justified about getting angry over - and that's litter. 

Of course I then grew up some more and realised how much discrimination still exists in the world (see http://femmesavecfaim.blogspot.co.uk/ for an example of my thoughts on this). But I still think the anti-littering makes a good premise for a song!

Some things I think some of the verses were about...

  • Vegetarianism for sustainability - but I still eat cheese (it's better than morals)
  • Saving energy - but I still want a cup of tea
  • Sticking it to the man - but I still enjoy marmite and Star Wars
