Tips from the gaggle

Read the lyrics through once silently before singing.
If the original tune is unfamiliar, look it up first.
Modify freely. Every gaggle adapts songs to local issues.

SING IT to the tune of Side by Side

Oh we’re a Gaggle of Grannies
Urging you off of your fannies
These trains coal and oil
Make our blood boil
Keep It in the ground

The C02 keeps on rising
This isn’t really surprising
Systems driven by greed
We must intercede
Keep It in the ground

If there’s to be a future
For beings on this earth
We will take (brief pause) to the streets
And make our voices heard

So join this Gaggle of Grannies
Get up off of your fannies
We’re tellingyou now
We’re angry and how
Keep It in the ground
We really mean it
Keep It in the ground
We mean precisely
Keep It in the ground
We will say it very nicely
Keep It in the ground
Read our lips
Keep it in the ground
Everyone:
Keep It In the ground
