The world beyond you and me.
It's really a shame that we're so quick to blame,
Before we learn ecology.
This song is about the various niches (roles) organisms have in their environment and how we label
them as "good" or "bad". It is sung from the perspective of being a scavenger, predator, or weedy
plant. Follow up could be to have a list of critters and plants that are considered pests and have
kids become that "pest" and explain what their life is about.
