SCAT
RAP Look
on the ground and listen to me We're
going to talk scatology Give
you information to educate you About
that thing we call doo-doo CHORUS It
starts with an S and ends with a T It
comes out of you and it comes out of me I
know what you're thinking, you could call it that But
be scientific and call it scat When
you're walking through the woods and your nose goes oooh It
means there's some critter's scat near you It
might seem gross, but that's OK 'Cause
they don't have toilets to flush it away CHORUS If
you park your car in the forest or the field You're
going to get scat on your windshield If
the seeds look like they're purple and white You've
been bombed by a bird in flight CHORUS If
you want to know what an animal eats Just
look for what it excretes
Burried in the scat are all the clues Like
bones and fur their bodies can't use CHORUS Well,
it tells us what they eat and it tells us who they are And
that's what we've learned from scat so far So
if you want to know who's walking around Just
look for some scat on the ground CHORUS This originally came from a workshop Environmental Education and the Arts given by the Great Smoky Mountains Institute at Tremont. This is my adaptation that I use (all too frequently) when one of my animals has an accident during a program.
