  • Lyrics:
    Yeah
    My yard needs water when it gets hotter
    Believe these dry days that I water that way
    But we want lawns to survive
    Concrete just won’t fly
    So I say, I water that way
    Tell me why?
    Don’t water when it’s rainin
    Tell me why?
    Don’t water when it’s windy
    Tell me why?
    Don’t let your water wash away
    I water that way
    Am I, doin this right?
    I’m watering at night
    This seems right
    I water that way
    Tell me why?
    Don’t water in the daytime
    Tell me why?
    Don’t water in the sunshine
    Tell me why?
    Don’t let it all evaporate
    I water that way
    Now I can see that you’ve taken to heart
    The watering rules baby (Yeah)
    So stop wasting water
    Start doing your part
    The future is in your hands!
    You can save water
    As it gets hotter
    So dry (so dry, so dry, so dry)
    What’s ColoradoScape?!
    More climate friendly landscapes
    More plants that like it in our state (You know we’re not Kentucky, no)
    Drought-friendly never felt so great (Oh no)
    I water that way
    Tell me why?
    Don’t water more than three days
    In a week!
    Don’t water from 10 a.m.
    To 6 p.m.
    Somebody tell the HOA (forgot the HOA…)
    I water that way
    Tell me why?
    You live in Colorado
    You want it to be habitable
    Tell me why?
    I only want to hear you say
    I water that way
    Cuz I water it that way

    My wife wanted to increase to watering 4 days a week and I responded with "BUT WHAT WOULD THE SPLASHSTREET BOYS THINK?!" And I won so thanks for that!

    This is an absolutely brilliant parody,mashing municipal services with a great song. The video is terrific and Colorado is proud of you. In the midst of a lot of crappy news, this made my heart smile. I needed that. And yes, I’m now all about bettering my water conservation. Well done everyone!

    This is so pretty fun to watch 😂
    I liked that one female member is also playing her part of being a boy band member quite sincerely. All the other members did quite well too.
    This is should get over 100M views.

    Greetings from Arizona! I live in the metro Phoenix area and the water conservation message really hits home - we all have to do our part. This video is such a hilariously awesome way to get that message out, kudos to all involved. Loved the person in the toilet suit, they should get hazard pay! I will be singing "I water that way.." when I water my plants in the evening....

    You guys killed it! At first I thought, “Ok, I’ll watch enough just to get a feel”, but I couldn’t stop watching. I’ve watched it three times already, and sent it to everyone I know. And I’m not even from Colorado! When are you going on tour?

    So I was mad at myself for not going to bed at 3 AM. I was putting the channel on what I want to watch in the morning when the ABC overnight news talked about this song. So, OF COURSE, I had to spend more time up at 3 AM to watch this. Now I'm kinda glad I stayed up😂
