Gaggle Make Good Trouble

Lyrics mostly by Pia Rostholder

Oh, we’re a gaggle of grannies
Urging you off of your fannies
It’s time to get woke
This isn’t a joke
Make good trouble!

No people are quite the same
If they were it would be a shame
Our world is diverse
A blessing, not curse
Make good trouble!

There are people who don’t get it
Feel disdain for those who care
About the world’s problems
And resources we must share

So, join this gaggle of grannies
Get up off of your fannies
Say I’m woke without fear
Make people aware
Make good trouble!

Make good trouble! Make good trouble! Make good trouble!

Sue We Are Amazed by You

Tune: Bicycle Built for Two
Lyrics: Pia Rostholder

Sue Kay Sue Kay
We are amazed by you
Really astonished
By all of the things you do
There’s actions, meetings, planning
So many things you’re handling
And family and friends
You help them too
We are amazed by you!

Sue Kay Sue Kay
We are amazed by you
All the issues
That are important to you
You stand up for immigration
Oppose incarceration
Safe homes and health care
An end to all war
We are amazed by you!

Sue Kay Sue Kay
We admire your values so much
Equality, rights and fairness
There are more than we can touch
We can’t think of any Isms
Against which you’ve not arisen
Whoever we are
You really do care
We are amazed by you!

Sue Kay Sue Kay
You’re a model for all of us
Friends and strangers
Lots of people you touch
You’ve brought many young people along
Showed them how to be brave, smart, and strong
You help us all cope
You fill us with hope
Oh SuSu we love you!

Gaggle Fight for Our Lives

Tune: Side by Side
By Pia Rostholder

Oh we’re a gaggle of grannies
Urging you off of your fannies
Rise up and resist
We must persist
Fight for our lives!

The fascists want all of us fearful
Great power and riches // we’re tearful
’cause millions are harmed.
Raise the alarm!
Fight for our lives!

In every state are people
Refusing to comply
With illegal orders.
Hear the great outcry!

So join this gaggle of grannies
Get up off of your fannies
We can’t let them win
Our future looks grim
Fight for our lives!

Speak:

Let’s hear it:
Fight for our lives!
Shout it out:
Fight for our lives!

We won’t let them win!
