Lead Police

Lead Police is a Sesame Street song about how to avoid lead poisoning.

Lyrics
We are the lead police.

We are the lead police.

We're the lead police and we're here to guide you.

We are the lead police.

Making sure that lead doesn't get inside you.

We are the lead police.

'Cause when lead gets in your body, it can make you sick.

Here what we say, we're the lead police.

So keeping lead out of your body's an important trick.

We'll lead the way; we're the lead police.

Lead can be hiding anywhere.

By the window in the dust, it might be there.

So, to keep you healthy, we've got rules to share with you.

So here's what you should do.

Here what we say; we are the lead police.

We'll lead the way; we are the lead police.

Wash your hands before you eat.

Did we mention we're the lead police?

Before you come inside, take your shoes right off your feet.

Pay attention to the lead police.

And don't eat paint from off the wall.

Use your head. We're the lead police.

'Cause that paint ain't good for you at all.

We're fighting lead. We're the lead police.

Well, we hope the rules in our little song

will help you grow up big and strong.

By telling you what's right and wrong to do.

To keep lead out of you.

We really care for you, the lead police.

We're always there for you, the lead police.

Use your head. We're the lead police.

We're fighting lead. We're the lead police.

Trivia

 * Mostly, the ground does not have lead on it nowadays. Lead can be found in ores, but not usually on the ground we walk on. Rarely there will be lead paint on old playgrounds, but this is becoming less and less true.
 * Be wary of old paint as that is likely to contain lead, but most new paint does not. I still wouldn't advise drinking it, though, as while it likely doesn't have lead it probably is still poisonous.
