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.
