No Such Thing as Waste
When I was a little boy, I liked to catch the rain
While people all around my town watched it flow right down the drain. But because our little shed in the bush wasn't on the mains
The only water we had to use was in a tank caught from the rain
Cos there's no such thing as waste
Only stuff in the wrong place
There's no such thing as waste Misusing water's a disgrace
Moved to the city, rented a house, on my way to buy a bed
Saw one lying on the side of the road so I took that one instead. I also found a fridge, a couch and a big old plasma screen in the biggest pile of thrown out stuff that I had ever seen
But there's no such thing as waste
Only stuff in the wrong place
Yeah, there's no such thing as waste
That old landfill is a disgrace.
Down the track, I found out that diesel cars can run on veggie fat
Bought a truck and hit the road, smelling like fish & chips
I rescued piles of wasted oil from the back of restaurants
I'd be a fool if I bought my fuel when there's oil nobody wants

There's no such thing as waste
Only stuff in the wrong place
No, there's no such thing as waste
That old idea's got to be replaced
Now we gotta refuse, reduce, reuse, repair, recycle
Refuse, reduce, reuse, repair, recycle.
Now I get my things out of garbage bins, I compost every crumb,
I save my seeds and eat my weeds and feed the leftovers to ya mum
Gonna build a house from the rubbish tip, gonna keep this planet clean
Reuse ideas that have been round for years to live within its means.
There's no such thing as waste, woah no
Only stuff in the wrong place, scooba doo beeooden dip
I said there's no such thing as waste, yeah
Only opportunity to be embraced
