    Story Behind the Song
    Okay, the real title is Blue Box Blues but that just seemed too darn Canadian for MP3. This is one of the featured pieces in our TV special, Greenpieces.

    Lyrics
    I been sitting in the kitchen
    Recyclin cans
    Peelin off the labels
    And I cut my hand
    Got a hundred newspapers in my little car trunk
    My basement is full of recyclable junk
    Got them green guilt, red tide, pull up the covers and hide blues

    I started my own compost heap
    I really worked hard
    Only problem is
    Now there's rats in my yard
    I'm recyclin plastics
    I'm recyclin glass
    And I hate to admit it
    But it's a pain in the --
    Got them no smoking, no drinking, head hurts from too much thinking blues

    There's pesticides in the apples
    And chemicals in the sprouts
    Radiation in the milk
    And I hear that oat bran's out
    I'm really bein careful
    watchin what I eat
    But forget it KD lang
    I ain't givin up meat
    Got them organic, tofu, everything is bad for you blues

    It's not easy goin green
    Paying my environmental dues
    So I'm trying to be good
    But you know I got them ecoİblues
    Reuse, recycle, repent

    I'm so scared of the sun
    I don't want to be fried
    So when I'm at the beach
    I wear Coppertone 95
    And if the sun is shinin
    And I'm tryin to look cute
    I wear a string bikini
    On my nuclear fall-out suit
    Got them growing ozone hole, flourocarbons melt the North Pole
    Rain forest revival, planetary survival blues
