00:22 Litterbug, litterbug, shame on you.
00:24 Look at the terrible things you do.
00:27 Littering, cluttering every place.
00:30 Why, but it's disgraceful.
00:32 Litterbug, litterbug, where's your pride?
00:35 Making a mess in the countryside.
00:37 Spoiling and spoiling each lovely view.
00:40 Shame, oh shame on you.
00:42 It really makes one wonder what kind of house you keep.
00:47 On every tour, the world is your personal barbeque.
00:51 You worthless litterbug, litterbug, don't you care?
00:55 I'll follow you everywhere, feeding the places that you've gone to.
00:59 Litterbug, oh shame on you.
01:04 In the war that we wage against pests,
01:08 modern science, of course, never rests.
01:12 The mosquito, we're told, now is largely controlled through oil,
01:18 sprayed on swamps it infests.
01:21 The boll weevil, relentlessly lusting, succumbs to a chemical dusting.
01:28 And where the termite carouses, we fumigate houses with gases it finds most disgusting.
01:36 Still, we have no cause to be smug.
01:40 We've invented no poison nor drug to settle the score with one pest we abhor
01:48 and contemptibly call litterbug.
01:52 This strange wingless pest we berate was unwisely endowed its one trait.
01:59 With claw-like transmitters, it holds, tears, and litters.
02:06 On weekends, three times its own weight.
02:10 Of their habits, this much science knows.
02:14 They stay dormant through seasons of snows, behind walls that are thick,
02:19 made of wood or of brick, in their nests built in parallel rows.
02:30 They emerge in great numbers in spring and at once start to scampered sing.
02:37 They take pride in their labors, competing with neighbors engaged in the very same thing.
02:45 Although proudly, each strives to maintain an immaculate private domain,
02:51 why each one another throws trash on its brother is a paradox none can explain.
02:59 Now, as to the types of litterbugs, most common, the unconscious carrier.
03:09 Uses the drop or the pop and drop.
03:15 It possesses no brain for a barrier.
03:18 And when virus inflicts, its litter is carelessly tossed.
03:25 And when tobacco addicted, its trail is not easily lost.
03:37 The sports bug.
03:39 Flamboyant and raiment is always loaded for littering entertainment.
03:45 Drop kicking.
03:50 A well placed bunt.
03:56 Drives that are clicking.
03:59 A javelin stunt.
04:01 Out!
04:02 A four litter man.
04:04 Now the sneak bug is a, is a sneak.
04:10 Methods polished to perfection.
04:12 Some so smooth in technique they defy human detection.
04:18 Well, it's impossible to follow the sleight of hand action unless we slow down that action a fraction.
04:42 The young are harmless, lovable creatures till their inborn instincts appear and they show their obnoxious features.
04:50 Though receiving no formal training, they achieve amazing results.
04:55 Constantly striving and straining to be as objectionable as the adults.
05:04 Summertime is migration time and litter bugs swarm in veritable legions.
05:10 Thousands upon thousands moving on to other regions.
05:20 Oh, a frightening experience to be caught in their path.
05:25 The swarm consists of two species.
05:27 So science teaches.
05:29 One plagues mountains, the other infests beaches.
05:35 The beach bug is attracted by the sparkling white sands and oceans glittering.
05:40 And here it indulges in its favorite pastimes.
05:46 Eating and littering.
05:52 Beach bugs are not nocturnal.
05:54 At sundown they instinctively return to their habitations.
05:59 Archaeologists have unearthed these evidences of previous migrations.
06:12 The mountain bug is drawn to woodland splendor where nature is at her best.
06:20 Here it establishes a temporary nest.
06:24 In the crisp mountain air its appetite is far from retarded.
06:28 It eats anything from containers that can be easily discarded.
06:36 Litter bug.
06:37 Litter bug.
06:39 Litter bug.
06:41 Litter bug, shame on you.
06:43 Look at the terrible thing you do.
06:46 Littering, fluttering every place.
06:48 My big disgraceful.
06:51 Litter bug, litter bug, where's your pride?
06:53 Making a mess of the country side.
06:56 Falling and falling each lovely view.
06:58 Shame, oh shame on you.
07:00 It really makes one wonder what kind of house you keep.
07:05 On every tour the world is your personal garbage heap.
07:10 You've got left litter bug, litter bug, don't you care?
07:13 People must follow you everywhere, cleaning up places that you've gone to.
07:18 Litter bug, shame on you.
07:20 Litter bug, shame on you.
07:23 Litter bug, oh shame on you.
07:30 Litter bug, oh shame on you.
