I Am The Lorax. I Speak for Mazda and IHop

It all started way back...

such a long, long time back...

Way back in the days when the grass was still green

and the pond was still wet

and the clouds were still clean,

and the song of the
Swomee-Swans rang out in space...

Then Hollywood said, 

"Let's make 'Lorax,' the movie

with lots of "green" tie-ins

it sure will be groovy."

But they lost the moral

Seuss wrote in the tale

that greed and consumption

may lead things to fail.

Most of the products

stamped "Lorax approved"

are all about profit

and should be removed.

Pancakes with sprinkles?

disposable diapers?

hotel chains and printers?

What's wrong with these vipers?!!

And then there is Mazda
 going into the schools

offering money

with very few rules.

 "Just get your folks

to test drive our car

then we'll give you cash

that's how great we are!"

"The Lorax, he loves our

 brand new SUVs;

they're cool and they're friendly

to Truffula Trees!"

A lone voice of reason

was heard from afar

a child said, "The Lorax 

doesn't drive a car."
