Heard a man on my T.V.
Say, “We gotta save all the energy
The oil and the coal are getting low
And the fast reactor is slow
Gave a little scream - gave a little cry
Looked like we were fixing to die
Heard a voice –it was my hamster Sid
These were the words he said.
“You may be human but you are dumb
There’s no need to sit their glum
I turn my wheel all through the night
That energy could give you light
Chorus:
Sing a little song for my hamster Sid
His wheel is connected to the National Grid
He’s a dynamo of high degree
He males e-lec-tric-it-y
A hamster wheel and elastic band
Makes the pylons sing all over this land
When he jumps on his wheel and he says, “Go.”
You ought to see those electrons flow.
He eats seeds from a sunflower flower
He makes hamsto-electric power
It’s good for the ecology
It’s high on ergs and pollution free
Chorus:
Ending:
My hamster pal and the food he ate
Saved the world from its fate
One he died and he died well used
His eyes just closed & his heart just fused
