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

Rock a bye baby, don’t you get sick.
Or your Mom and your Da-ad will go broke real quick.
Grandpa and Grandma wish it weren’t true–
Big rich insurers don’t care about you.

Rock a bye tax cuts helping the rich
You’re out of luck–if YOUR kid gets sick
Health care insurers rake in the cash
If you are POOR, they’ll treat you like trash

Rock a bye profits that’s what they love.
Kids and grand-PA-rents merit a shove.
Everyone IS in danger it’s true,
Cuz big rich insurers don’t care about you.
