I'm just used to the fast pace and chasing the next thing which I think is healthy too but, sometimes it's ok to sit and relax and be in your world."

Lyrics include ...

So to change their emissions, Burger King went on a mission

Testing diets that would help reduce their farts

That's a start!

And by now there ain't no question that it's helping cows' digestion

Adding lemongrass, so they can play their part

Reducing methane, methane

And the scientists have proven that it works

Reducing methane, methane

We can reduce emissions by more than a third

Farmer: "If my cow ain't farting, it must be me!"
