note: These lyrics are designed to go along with some version of "Stars and Stripes Forever," which can be found at the following website:

The first 6 lines of the song were popularized by some old TV show but I wrote the rest, to teach English to students in Thailand. We had them draw the animals, which was "sanuuk." (fun)
Be kind to your web footed friends
for a duck could be somebody's mother
Be kind to your friends in the swamp
where it's very warm and damp
Well, you may think that this is the end
But it isn't.
Oh be kind to your slow footed friends
For a gecko could be somebody's brother
Be kind to your friends that go clomp,
elephants like to feast and stomp.
Well you may think that this is the end
But it isn't.
Oh be kind to your fin-footed friends
That fish might be somebody's father
Be kind to all friends in the sea
catch just what you need to eat.
Well you may think that this is the end
But it isn't
Be kind to your deep-rooted friends
Tell me who has that tree ever bothered?
Oh be kind to your friends everywhere
we all share this earth together
Well you may think that this is the end
Well it is
