Do I really need this food?
I threw last week’s in the bin
The sell by dates had passed you see
Anyway, I wouldn’t fit this lot in
Do I really need to take the car?
I’m only going down the way
But my boots are new, I’ve just bought these too
I don’t want them muddied in one day
Do I really need a brand-new phone?
My old one still receives and sends
But it’s not so cool and sleek and shiny
And I can’t wait to show my friends
Do I need my sunscreen and my hat?
Oh yes, it’s going to be warm
I don’t want to get a sunburned nose
Or have moles appear on my arm
The science says it’s global warming
And I really should do more
But I recycle my plastics every week
I put them out by my front door
Thinking of how the world might be
And how everything’s a mess
It’s only served to make me sad
I think I’ll go back for that dress
