Little tiny brains (waggle heads fetchingly back & forth)
In the federal government
They wobble to and fro
Where ‘ere they’re sent
When they sell our farms
They are showing their
LITTLE TINY BRAINS (Lightly cuff head unbelievingly)
2)
The Correctional Service
Says they’re saving dough
When they sell our famrs
But this ain’t so
The cost goes up
In society
due to TINY BRAINS!

1) They’re shutting down
Our prison farms
Deep in the heart of Kingston (clap-clap-clap)
Greedy idiots
Doing harm
Deep in the heart of Kingston (clap-clap-clap)
2) The heart of Kingston
Reaches out (clap-clap-clap)
To prison farms
around us (clap-clap-clap)
Keep all the cows
Yes, keep the lot
This is the word from Kingston! (clap-clap-clap)

(Tune: White Sports Coat & A Pink Carnation)
by Rose DeShaw
The Three
Stooges
and BP Oil
Trussed us all up
For their dance
The three
Stooges
Pratfall with BP
Eye gouge with
Right wing rants.
Once they told us
Long ago
They were going green
You know
Now they changed their mind
It seems
Not a money-making scheme
The Three
Stooges
Drilled a hole too deep there
And now they all say:
‘Oooops!’
2) The Three
Stooges
Fiddling with
Our ocean

Gaza, Gaza, Gaza, Gaza
O your troubles are
Too big for me
Gaza, Gaza, Gaza, Gaza
So I’ll close my ears
And shut my eyes
Gaza, Gaza, dance instead
No bombs are falling
La, La, La I cannot hear
my fingers in my ear!
Gaza, Gaza, with my eyes shut
One, two, three, four,
No one dying anymore
Gaza, Gaza, won’t it mend
If I pretend?
Gaza, Gaza, Gaza!
Gaza, Gaza, [...]

Tune: The Water Is Wide (Old English Folk)
1)The Gaza Strip
is in the news
The push is on,
to make us choose
We have to say,
we choose the young
From every place
this war goes on

“The problem is all inside the Hill,” she said to me
The answer is easy if you take it logically
Michelle Jean can help in our struggle to be free
There must be 50 ways to leave our HARPER!
It’s true, it’s really not our habit to intrude
Futhermore the message mustn’t be lost or misconstrued
But I’ll repeat at the [...]

HOW PTSD WORKS – You Can Handle It
(From years of personal experience)
(Tune: They Call The Wind, Moriah)
1) Horror’s picked itself a name
Though it’s been around for ages
Post Trauma Stress Disorder is
Our label for the rages
But it’s normal
It’s normal
When you understand, it’s normal
 
2)A crisis situation calls
For you to start reacting
When trauma comes
Emotions get
All mixed up in [...]
