"Don't Go Near the Water"
by The Beach Boys

"Don't Go Near the Water" Lyrics

Don't go near the water...
Don't you think it's sad,
What's happened to the water?
Our water's goin' bad.

Oceans, rivers, lakes and streams
Have all been touched by man.
The poison floatin' out to sea
Now threatens life on land.

Don't go near the water...
Ain't it sad,
What's happened to the water?
It's going bad.

Don't go near the water;
Don't go near the water...

Toothpaste and soap will make our oceans a bubble bath,
So let's avoid an ecological aftermath.
Beginning with me,
Beginning with you...

Don't go near the water
To do it any wrong;
To be cool with the water
Is the message of this song.

Let's all help the water—
Right away!
Do what we can and ought to—
Let's start today.
