verse 1: I've got alleys to bike, before I sleep In my quest for free food, I've got a schedule to keep verse 2: There's a third-hand store with snacks to spare We'll find apples and cookies and carrots to share verse 3: Lord, Please bless me as I search in the night An buffet of treats, an expired delight verse 4: Chocolate I crave, bread would be great Samantha's juice not too far overdate Samantha's juice not too far overdate chorus: I feel aliver, now that I'm a dumpster diver Together, we're exploring, what other people are ignoring I feel aliver, now that I'm a dumpster diver Together, we're exploring, what other people are ignoring verse 5: We are the dumpster liberation front Riding bicycles, out on the hunt Lose the crowd, abandon the malls With their credit card slaves, walking the halls verse 6: There's dumpster diver everywhere, looking for food, open to share From New York City to Hong Kong, one man's trash is another man's song From West Palm Beach to Burlington, Vermont, there's plenty of dumpsters for you to haunt California to Mississippi, even if you're not a hippie verse 7: Are you curious? Join us tonight. Bring a smile and an appetite. You'll find every dumpster has a prize, if you lift the lid and open your eyes In the diving world, I'm blessed so much, the king of diving with the dumpster touch We don't need a chip, we'll dive our food. We're dumpster divers with attitude.

"I'll dumpster dive" lyrics: Kris Kemp music: Gloria Gaynor verse 1: I have an old Honda. It's not a hybrid Those cars are $30,000. That's why, kid I've got energy to spare. My bicycle has air. When I pedal, I can feel solar in my hair. chorus: Well, I, I'll dumpster dive. Now that I know how to shop, I'll stay alive A sustainable way to eat. I'll find a treat. A solution to pollution. Hey! That's neat! verse 2: When you dumpster dive your food, you don't have to panic It's good for the environment, sometimes you'll find organic I spent all these years using a credit card to buy my food Then I learned how to be a dumpster diver with attitude verse 4: And now I'm back, from the third-hand store When I'm in the dumpster, I know I'll always score I can find the food I need, an entire family I can feed And if the food is rotten, well, then I can't plant a seed verse 5: And it will grow into a tree Provide food and shade and oxygen for you and me With the money that I save, I don't have to be a slave To a person, place, or thing! Hey, no! I don't need that bling! chorus 2: Now I, I'll dumpster dive! Now that I know how to shop, I know I'll stay alive Wash off the contamination. Enjoy conservation. It's non-toxic and free. Dumpster dive with me! Hey, hey. lyrics: Kris Kemp music: Gloria Gaynor DumpsterDiverMusical.com

Somewhere in the night, I will find you And this song is a spark to remind you Hold your dreams that's inside Light the fire, get ready for the ride Somewhere in the night, you are standing At the edge of adventure, and a life that's so demanding Hold your dreams that's inside Light the fire, get ready for the ride Someday is now Somewhere is here Someone is you Someone is you (repeat)
