# Whatever happens to?
1985
I was wondering -
Whatever happens to?
Whatever happens to
That last inch of all those pencils?
The last drops of coffee in millions of Starbucks cups?
Whatever happens to
The tobacco in millions of cigarette butts?
The last squirt in millions of toothpaste tubes?
Whatever happens to
Millions of half-used motel soap bars?
The ends of all those matches?
Somewhere
They must be
Gathering.
