I know, I know, yesterday it was recycling and today littering. But it’s not the littering you’re thinking of, not the kind that’s bad for the planet. No, this is about littering that’s bad for animals.
Thanks to Lady Bjork from Facebook (no, not the Icelandic pop singer, I saw this amazing video with a powerful message and had to share.
“Help!” is a music video created by the Alliance for Humane Action (AHA!) an Illinois-based organization providing affordable spay and neuter services for pets and ferals. They came up with a brilliant twist on the typical spay/neuter message that puts the focus on the animals themselves rather than the burden to the community.
How great if they could turn this into a :30 PSA. I’m truly impressed. I hope you watch the video, but in case you don’t, I’m publishing the lyrics with key frames. Enjoy!
“HELP!”
(to be sung to the Beatles’ tune of the same name)
Help! I need somebody not just anybody, help! you know I need someone.
HEEEELP!
When I was young so much younger than today,
could have spayed me then before the boys came here to play.
Now I’ve had another litter, 5th one in a row,
some of them, they’re having kids, it’s out of control!
Help me if you can I’m feeling like…
a machine that just makes kittens where’s my life?
take me to the clinic set me free,
won’t you please, please spay me!
(second verse)
Don’t forget the males you’ve got to know that it takes two.
He looks like Petie!
We can’t drive…to the clinic..it’s all up to you!
Dogs and cats they don’t need babies,
population boom!
How would you feel if your children couldn’t have a home.
Help me if you can I’m feeling like,
all those hormones keep me looking for more wives.
Take me to the clinic set me free,
won’t you please please neuter me.
help me! help me!
