Bill Nye

Always Dry

There are places on this here planet
Where you have to be alert
When you go there you have to plan it
I'm talking about the desert

There is little rain or snow
You might ask yourself why
Something you should already know
Is deserts are always dry

Animals and plants have found
Ways to store water
And camels can go dozens of days
Even when it's hotter

From Antarctica to the Sahara
Just ask a snake or the cacti
If they could talk they should tell ya
Water's in short supply
Deserts are always dry

But don't be fooled about the desert
It's not always hot like you're told
Or full of cactus, snakes and dirt
Some deserts are even cold
But not a lot of water there
The main thing that I'm told

From Antarctica to the Sahara
Just ask a snake or the cacti
If they could talk they should tell ya
Deserts are always dry
Just ask Bill Nye
