Canvas Bags - Tim Minchin

Take your canvas bags

When you go

To the supermarket

Why use plastic bags when you know

You know the world can’t take it

Take your canvas bags

When you go

To the supermarket market market yeah yeah

Don’t you use those plastic ones

No, no, no

Don’t you know that you’ll feel better for it

Take your canvas bags

Break it down

Take your canvas (take your canvas bags), take your canvas

Take your canvas bags (take your canvas bags)

To the supermarket (take your canvas bags)

(To the supermarket) All the ladies in the house come on and let me hear you

say 'canvas'

Canvas!

All the fellas in the house come on and let me hear you say 'bags'

Bags!

Yeah!

Take your canvas bags

Take your canvas bags

Take your canvas bags to the supermarket

Just think about the world

And how the world would be fantastic

If we could get rid of all the plastic

We just need to get enthusiastic

Organise a competition, gymnastic

Or a bag-making comp at your school

Fuck it, make it interscholastic

Canvas is for everyone

Whether you be rebellious and iconoclastic

Or conservative or ecclesiastic

I don’t care if you’re loud and bombastic

Or quiet or virtually monastic

Sober or on the floor spastic

A yoga master or completely inelastic

I’m not trying to be ironic or sarcastic

Do something drastic

To rid the world of plastic

Take your canvas bags

Take your canvas bags

Take your canvas bags to the supermarket

Take your canvas bags

Take your canvas bags

Take your canvas bags to the supermarket

Take your canvas bags

Take your canvas bags

Take your canvas bags to the

Supermarket
