After dinner we were treated to a surprise when the girls that were in "Dana's Car" had a presentation....on their way home from the Audubon Reserve yesterday, they made up their own version to Dana's favorite song, "Gold Digger"...originally by Ray Charles and most recently Kanye West. This was an ode to our work on Saturday.
*the lyrics to their masterpiece are below...
she defeats the bunnies
when I'm in need
yeah she's a helpful friend indeed
oh she's a hole digger, way over town
that digs for trees
now I ain't saying she a good digger
but she's making the wetlands bigger
get down girl, go head get down
get down girl, go head get down
this morning we got up & we went to the barn
put a couple shovels under each of our arms
they said I can tell you clean by the way that you dress
so put on your boots and go clean up that mess
but I'm looking for the trees, have ya seen em?
no we ain't seen em since Katrina.
now I ain't saying she a good digger
but she's making the wetlands bigger
4 long years, 4 long years. It's been 4 whole years and it still ain't clear
drivin down the street & there's trash in the yard
pick it up girls! it aint hard
see it on tv, any given sunday
they still need our help and they need our money
so give it to em honey they need yo money
so give it to em honey.
if you aint no punk, holla we want clean-up
we want clean-up!
