About this song (Last.fm)
An 'emotional' tune that has fun lyrics. Tim Minchin is Australian, but you can't really tell. Trying to show that he can send out a serious message, Minchin explains how plastic is the bane of the universe and that we can only save our planet by eliminating it and "taking our canvas bags to the supermarket". Of course, this message is punctuated by the usual splashes of humour that Minchin has made his trademark. Read more on Last.fm.
