SONG

Click here for reggae Biofuel song!

  Bio fuel... will make us more hungry... bio fuel...crazy idea
  Evil men, with that wicked intention...
  Where is your plan...for the next generation
  Sitting very passive... will only make things more massive
  We have got to stop them... from destroying all creation
  Burning up the food... is gonna make more people hungry
  Cutting down the trees.. will only poison our air
  Bio fuel use... is gonna make food more expensive
  Deforestation... is gonna mash up our nation.
