The Whale is
majestic,
The Dolphin is cute,
We want to protect them
From humans who loot.
Keeping
innocent Seals
From the hunters’ cruel hands,
We each raise our voice,
And we all take a stand.
But what
of the Sponge,
Who lives in the deep?
With him we wash dishes,
We mop and we sweep.
Washing
cars in the driveway,
The windows and walls,
He is one of God’s creatures,
But we don’t care at all.
The
hunters first take him
And crush his small head,
They keep on a’squeezin’
Until he is dead.
We cry
for the Whale
And the Dolphin, so cute,
When it comes to the Sponge
We just don’t give a hoot.
This is
crazy, you say,
Your point cannot win,
For the sponge has no flippers,
Or rubbery skin.
This tale
has been told,
Makes us think, makes us mute,
Let’s protect all God’s creatures,
Not just those that are cute.
