Gone to weed and bug kill every one,
short time ago.

Where have all the butterflies gone?
Short time passing.
Where have all the butterflies gone?
Short time ago.

Gone to weed and bug kill every one,
short time ago.

Where have all the flowers gone?
Short time passing.
Where have all the flowers gone?
Short time ago.

Gone to weed killing herbicides every one!
When will they ever learn?
When will theeeyyy ever learn?

Where have all the little bugs gone?
Short time passing.
Where have all the little bugs gone?
Short time ago.

Gone to herbicides and pesticides every one!
When will they ever learn?
When will theeeyyy evvver learn?

Birds and butterflies to zoos and arboretums every one.
When will they ever learn?
When will theeeyyy evvver learn?

Where have all the fishes gone?
Short time passing.
Gone with herbicides and pesticides every one!

When will they ever learn?
When will theeeyyy evvver learn?

My apologies to Pete Seeger and Joe Hickerson
for their classic folksong,
"Where Have All the Flowers Gone?"
