The world under
Look closelyThe world under the world over
Is a lovely place
Held together by a fairly thin line
The sky is clearer
In the world under the world over
The grass greener
Than previously seen by you and I
Life is simple
On the world under the world over
If needed
Just fall away its no concern of mine
One thing true
Just like the world over the world under
Sad to say
Even the world under the world over isn’t immune
No matter where you’re at
Some assholes think
It is ok
To dump their shit in the woods!

nicely penned.
Amen to Brian. When Francie and I went to Canada, several years ago now, 2003 or thereabouts, we discovered that Canadians and their visitors do not behave like stupid Americans consistently do. That was so completely true that my former girlfriend left the country, emigrating to Canada for good.

i'm with ben. boo litterbugs! his use of the term made me laugh: litterbugs have advanced to litterjerks.

I LOVE!!! Litter bugs piss me off, yeah xD Especially when i go camping.Btw, in response to your comment. At the exact moment, it was 7-up. Previously we'd been drinking Coke and I guess that's where the confusion occurred. Also, I ended up pouring 7-up into the kid's ice tray and now my phone is stolen after I worked as their teacher. Talk about karma xD
