World Toilet Day - Thank You Toilet by Louie the Loo



LYRICS
I am your toilet, so how do you do.

I take away your wee, and the odd number two.


For a quiet moment, I'll always be there.

Bring in your troubles, you don't even have to care.


Oh think about the things you put me through.

(Things you put me through, that have been through you.)


Stuff from your body I'll happily take,

Liquid or solid, whatever you make.


When you think of all the things that I do,

It's time to say thanks to your loo. 


If I wasn't there anymore,

You can only imagine disaster. 


I am a lifesaver and that is not a lie,

Where I don't exist, thousands die.


So next time you have to, do a poo or a wee.

Thank the sanitary saints that you have a me.


When you think of all the things that I do,

It's time, to say thanks to your loo.


La la la la la la la la la la,

La la la la la la laaa

La la la la la laa

Join Louie the Loo to celebrate the little guy in the corner - your toilet! Did you know he's a life-saver, and where toilets don't exist, thousands die? 

Around 700,000 children die every year from diarrhoea caused by unsafe water and poor sanitation - that's almost 2,000 children a day. 


Today is World Toilet Day, a UN recognized event, observed annually on 19 November. This international day of action aims to break the taboo around toilets and draw attention to the global sanitation challenge. To mark the occasion, I thought I would post this video for the 'before-you-go' toilet spray Poo-Pourri (a play on potpourri), which has got over 19m views on YouTube in just over two months. It certainly breaks the taboo around toilets, but also demonstrates how lucky (?) we are to not only have proper toilets, but also products to stop them smelling. Meanwhile, over 2.5 billion people don't have access to proper sanitation.
