00:22 Litterbug, litterbug, shame on you.
00:24 Look at the terrible things you do.
00:27 Littering, cluttering every place.
00:29 I bet it's disgraceful.
00:32 Litterbug, litterbug, where's your pride?
00:34 Making a mess in the countryside.
00:37 Spalling and soiling each lovely view.
00:39 Shame, oh shame on you.
00:41 It really makes one wonder what kind of house you keep.
00:46 On every tour the world is your personal barbecue.
00:51 You fabulous litterbug, litterbug, don't you care?
00:54 People must follow you everywhere.
00:57 Cleaning up places that you've gone to.
00:59 Litterbug, oh shame on you.
01:04 In the war that we wage against pests,
01:08 modern science, of course, never rests.
01:12 The mosquito, we're told, now is largely controlled through oil.
01:18 Sprayed on swamps it infests.
01:21 The boll weevil, relentlessly lusting,
01:25 succumbs to a chemical dusting.
01:28 And where the termite carouses, we fumigate houses with gases.
01:33 It finds the most disgusting.
01:36 Still, we have no cause to be smug.
01:40 We've invented no poison nor drug
01:44 to settle the score with one pest we abhor
01:48 and contemptibly call litterbug.
01:52 This strange wingless pest we berate
01:55 was unwisely endowed its one trait.
01:59 With claw-like transmitters, it holds, cares, and litters.
02:05 On weekends, three times its own weight.
02:10 Of their habits, this much science knows.
02:14 They stay dormant through seasons of snows,
02:17 behind walls that are thick, made of wood or of brick,
02:22 in their nests built in parallel rows.
02:26 They emerge in great numbers in spring
02:33 and at once start to scampered sing.
02:37 They take pride in their labors,
02:39 competing with neighbors engaged in the very same thing.
02:45 Although proudly, each strives to maintain
02:48 an immaculate private domain,
02:50 why each one another throws trash on its brother
02:54 is a paradox none can explain.
02:58 Now, as to the types of litterbugs,
03:03 most common, the unconscious carrier.
03:07 Uses the drop.
03:11 Or the pop and drop.
03:14 It possesses no brain for a barrier.
03:17 And when virus inflicts, its litter is carelessly tossed.
03:23 And when tobacco addicted, its trail is not easily lost.
03:31 The sports bug.
03:39 Flamboyant and raiment is always loaded
03:42 with four littering entertainment.
03:45 Drop kicking.
03:48 A well placed bunt.
03:53 Drives that are clicking.
03:59 A javelin stunt.
04:02 A four litter man.
04:04 Now the sneak bug is a, is a sneak.
04:09 Methods polished to perfection.
04:12 Some so smooth in technique they defy human detection.
04:17 Well, it's impossible to follow the sleight of hand action
04:21 unless we slow down that action a fraction.
04:26 (music)
04:42 The young are harmless, lovable creatures
04:45 till their inborn instincts appear
04:48 and they show their obnoxious features.
04:51 Though receiving no formal training,
04:53 they achieve amazing results.
04:56 Constantly striving and straining
04:59 to be as objectionable as the adults.
05:03 (music)
05:05 Summertime is migration time.
05:07 And litter bugs swarm in veritable legions.
05:10 Thousands upon thousands.
05:13 Moving on to other regions.
05:16 (music)
05:21 Swarm. A frightening experience to be caught in their path.
05:25 The swarm consists of two species.
05:28 So science teaches.
05:30 One plagues mountains.
05:32 The other infests beaches.
05:35 The beach bug is attracted by the sparkling white sands
05:39 and oceans glittering.
05:41 And here it indulges in its favorite pastimes.
05:45 Eating and littering.
05:51 Beach bugs are not nocturnal.
05:54 At sundown, they instinctively return to their habitations.
05:58 Archaeologists have unearthed these evidences of previous migrations.
06:03 (music)
06:11 The mountain bug is drawn to woodland splendor
06:14 where nature is at her best.
06:17 (music)
06:20 Here it establishes a temporary nest.
06:23 In the crisp mountain air, its appetite is far from retarded.
06:28 It eats anything from containers that can be easily discarded.
06:33 (music)
06:36 Litter bug. Litter bug. Litter bug.
06:41 Litter bug, shame on you.
06:43 Look at the terrible things you do.
06:46 Littering, fluttering every place.
06:48 My big disgraceful.
06:51 Litter bug, litter bug, where's your pride?
06:53 Making a mess of the countryside.
06:56 Stalling and stalling each lovely view.
06:58 Shame, oh shame on you.
07:00 It really makes one wonder what kind of house you keep.
07:05 On every tour, the world is your personal garbage heap.
07:10 You've got less litter bug, litter bug, don't you care?
07:13 People must follow you everywhere.
07:16 Cleaning up places that you've gone to.
07:18 Litter bug, shame on you. Litter bug, shame on you.
07:23 Litter bug, oh shame on you.
07:27 (music)
07:31 Litter bug, oh shame on you.
