"Don't Go Near the Water" Lyrics

Don't go near the water...

Don't you think it's sad,

What's happened to the water?

Our water's goin' bad.

Oceans, rivers, lakes and streams

Have all been touched by man.

The poison floatin' out to sea

Now threatens life on land.

Don't go near the water...

Ain't it sad,

What's happened to the water?

It's going bad.

Don't go near the water;

Don't go near the water...

Toothpaste and soap will make our oceans a bubble bath,

So let's avoid an ecological aftermath.

Beginning with me,

Beginning with you...

Don't go near the water

To do it any wrong;

To be cool with the water

Is the message of this song.

Let's all help the water—

Right away!

Do what we can and ought to—

Let's start today.

Artist: Beach Boys

Album: Sunflower/Surf's Up
