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 This Land Is Your Land
This park is your park,
This park is my park.
The wind was blowing,
The man was spraying!
We play and sit here.
We bring our kids here.
This park was made for you and me.
Look at Toronto.
Forget Monsanto!
Can we walk barefoot
Where 2-4-D’s put?
Is clover noxious?
Are WE obnoxious? [sweet smile]
This park was made for you and me.
This Park is my park.
This park is your park.
From spring till winter,
In light and in dark.
We play and sit here.
We bring our kids here.
This park was made for you and me!
WE HOPE!!
