Official 2010 Green Cup Challenge Video: Phillips Academy

Phillips Academy's 2010 submission for the Green Cup Challenge. Written and Directed by Michael Kontaxis. A Big Blue Noodle Production.

LYRICS:

ADRIAN:
Whats your problem hot shot, too lazy for the stairs?
Your build is athletic, you should be blazing up there
MICHAEL:
Your lack of eco respect, seems to come out of thin air.
The implication of your actions says you dont care.

A: Look at this dude, ordering stir fry with beef
A: Thinking it doesnt matter is a false belief
M: You gotta change your ways, give the planet relief
M: Become a vegan, just like our commander in chief.

A: Go Green M: or Go Home!
A: Go Green M: or Go Home!
A: Go Green M: or Go Home!
A: Go Green M: or Go Home!

MICHAEL:
Hey, hey you, Du, Im talking to you!
Your football mind is genius, but your green ones askew
For saving earth, theres nothing worse than ordering food
So get your donkey to commons before my tude becomes rude

ADRIAN:
Driving, driving fast, down the city streets.
Earths resources, thanks to you will slowly deplete.
Do me a favor, you arrogant elite with conceit.
Snatch a bike or a trike, and cruise down the concrete.

M: Go Green A: or Go Home!
M: Go Green A: or Go Home!
M: Go Green A: or Go Home!
M: Go Green A: or Go Home!

ADRIAN:
When you take a shower
Try not to go too hot
Never take an hour
Or youll watch the penguins rot

MICHAEL:
The same applies to you
When you dont shut out the lights
Join my eco-crew
Or get ready for a fight.

MICHAEL/ADRIAN:
Did you know?
If we recycled all our newspapers and cans,
Wed save 80 billion cans and 30 million trees
Every year using just our hands.
So do your part,
Please recycle all the time.
It makes a difference.
Dont believe me? Just ask Mrs. Pryde.

MRS. PRYDE:
It does!

A: Go Green M: or Go Home!
M: Go Green A: or Go Home!
A: Go Green M: or Go Home!
M: Go Green BOTH: or Go Home!

M: While some ignoramuses dont care worth a dime
A: There are some good kids, who do their part all the time.
A: Take Matt Apps as a dude with whom we can compare.
M: Cus while that loser rises gently, hes dashin up the stairs.

M: Theres the chump who made the pizza guy come to his dorm.
A: It seems hes learned his lesson, lets question him some more.
MICHAEL: Whatcha ordering kid?
DU: Stir fry, dont ya see?
ADRIAN: You got meat in that dish?
DU: Not a chance, just veggies.

M: Ricks on his bike, got it right, straight kicking it.
Saving the environment and looking slick doing it.
A: And though, I suppose, that some peeps like it hot.
I say freeze It builds character and saves a lot.

M: And when you leave your room, please dont be a brat.
A: Flick the switch. Really. how hard was that?

BOTH:
Go Green, or Go Home!
Go Green, or Go Home!
Go Green, or Go Home!
Go Green, or Go Home!
Go Green, or Go Home!
Go Green, or Go Home!
Go Green, or Go Home!
Go Green, or Go Home!
