Nikki came to England in the back of a brand new Transit van
She had been in East Africa when the poachers shot down a whirlybird
Just days before the dentist had shot a Lion in the nature reserve
The WWF for nature were feeding carrots to an African Elephant
They claimed these animals were in danger of becoming extinct
The Maasi warriors, the bushmen of the Kalahar, the red indians and the Aborigines
Were being slowly wiped out by pestilence and disease
The sun rose in the East that day it showed the forest in all its glory
The planet could be seen from outer space there was no deforestation, no trees were set alight
The meandering river lead to the St Lawrence water way from the Great Lakes to the Atlantic Ocean
The sepia images turned to black and white and then technicolour came along
Teaching all the children another happy song
