Oil Dependence (to the tune of Frere Jaques)

By Granny Gail Sredanovic

Oil dependence, oil dependence

Leads to war, leads to war

We don't wanna go to war

We don't wanna increase our

Oil dependence, oil dependence

Big gas guzzlers

Big gas guzzlers

Waste our oil

Waste our oil

If you waste our oil supply

We think that it's fair to cry

Terror-IST. Terror-IST!

(repeat)


Drive a Hummer, What a Bummer (Tune: Clementine)

By Granny Gail Sredanovic

Drive a Hummer, What a Bummer

Check your conscience at the gate

Real gas guzzling, global warming

What will be our future fate?

To look macho

is it worth it

To pollute our common space

Oil dependence how does that fit

Does it help the human race?

So get real, make a deal

Do NOT buy a big Humvee

Fuel efficient cars

Will make a

Better world for you and me


Give Me The Fuel Efficient Auto (Tune: Give me that Old Time Religion)

By Granny Gail Sredanovic

Give me that fuel efficient auto

Give me that fuel efficient auto

Give me that fuel efficient auto

It's good for you and me

It's good enough for Europe,

It's good enough for Asia,

It's good for other nations,

And it's good for you and me.

Give us a cleaner burning engine

Give us a cleaner burning engine

Give us a cleaner burning engine

It's good for you and me

It's good for the mothers,

It's good for the fathers,

it's good for the children,

And it's good for you and me


Make Peace Not War  (Tune: When the Saints Go Marching In)

Author unknown

When we make peace instead of war

When we make peace instead of war

How I want to be in that number

When we make peace instead of war

When all the humvees are gone from earth

When all the humvees are gone from earth

How I want to be in that number

When all the humvees are gone from earth

When no oil wars pollute the earth

When no oil wars pollute the earth

How I want to be in that number

When no oil wars pollute the earth

When people walk instead of drive

When people walk instead of drive

How I want to be in that number

When people walk instead of drive


Got GAS? (Tune: Marine Corps Hymn)

From Kuwait and Venezuela

To the Arabian and Caspian Seas

We will pump out all the planet's oil

Just to fuel our big Humvees.

We can get ten miles per gallon

As we guzzle gasoline

Since we'll always need a lot more oil

We'll just call out our Marines

We will pave the way for Texaco

for Standard, and for Arco to,

And Exxon, Shell and Amoco

But the cost is paid by you!

And some foreigners will lose their lives

As their cities we invade

But we'll get gas for our guzzling cars

And spite the enemies we've made.
