CHORUS
What shall we do with the old wine bottles?
What shall we do with the old wine bottles?
What shall we do with the old wine bottles,
When we finish drinking?
Let’s not fling them into streets then,
They don’t make streets smell so sweet then,
Our world will not look so neat then,
With all that thoughtless flinging.
CHORUS
Trash just sends them into landfill,
Landfill’s just a form of growth kill,
Surely we have got the good will
To give them a new beginning.
CHORUS
If they charge a very small toll
They can start them on a new roll.
The SAQ will start recycling,
And we can keep on drinking.
