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 Frère Jacques
Tax the rich, tax the rich
Jobs for vets, jobs for all
Educate our children,
Fix the roads & bridges
Give us hope, give us hope!
Corporate welfare costs us billions
CEO’s with obscene pay
Doesn’t trickle down,
Doesn’t trickle down
Tax them too, make them pay!
