| Scat |
| CHORUS
A D Scat makes the world go �round. E A The forest can�t survive if it�s not on the ground. D So when I step in a lump of scat, E A I�ll jump for joy and tell myself that�s where it�s at. A big cow pie does a wonderful deed, Nutrients are what the soil needs, The cow pie rots and goes back to the earth, To make good soil for a new plant�s birth. Coyote scat comes in a neat gray stick, And if you look inside it, you will get a kick, You�ll find bones and fur and claws From all the little critters he had in his jaws. Raccoon scat is red and rather neat, �Cause Manzanita berries are their favorite treat, It�s lumpy and easily crumbles away, Decomposition starts and then you�ll say� Bear scat will make you blink your eyes, It�s big and you might find anything inside, Buckeyes, insects or plastic bags, Trash in scat will really make you gag. Deer scat is round and raisin-like, And you might see it while you�re on your hike. It looks like a snack but please don�t bite, �Cause eating scat will keep you up all night. So next time you walk in a forest green, Remember all different kinds of scat you�ve seen, Please don�t scream, but get it off your shoe, �Cause scat has some very special work to do. |
