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 Where Have All the Flowers Gone?

What good have the sanctions done?
Children are starving.
Saddam reigns upon his throne,
Children are dead.
Infrastructure all is gone,
Clean water there is none.
When will this ever end?
When will this ever end?

We must all unite to lift
These senseless sanctions.
We must spread the word about
What has been done.
Let us never stop until
There is no more slaughter.
We must see that it ends.
We must see that it ends.
