Be Cool, Help Clean the School!

Pick Up Trash

by: Clara B.

Be cool clean the school.

Speak out loud and be proud.

So pick up trash and you’ll have a bash.

Your almost there so don’t be scared.

Tell some kids to do the same and

your world won’t be lame.

Trash oh Trash!

by: Anonymous

Trash oh trash!

That is me! I am the trash on the ground,

please pick me up – you see.

I have been here sitting waiting for you.

I hate it here you see,

So pick me up so I can be free.
