WE DON’T NEED S. WELLINGTON EXTENSION!

Friday December 31st, 2010 in A - Cataraqui Trail Songs, Songs

Tune: CASEY JONES
We don’t need that south
Wellington Extension
The northern bit will
do the city fine!
Save six million
Keep a lovely park too
Start a public trail
For your grandkids
And for mine!
Tune: Wabash Cannon Ball
1) The men who run the city
Want to ram another road
Right through a waterfront park though
There’s already just loads
Of alternate routes to travel
No one needs anymore
But [...]

ONLY ANGELS NAMED HAROLD SING

Friday December 31st, 2010 in Songs, Songs - Also see Raging Gran Songsite

Tune: Hark The Herald A
Hark! Angels named Harold sing
All the rest don’t say a thing
Angels Ken and Mike and Pete
Do not make a single peep!
Against tradition we will go
Include old angels Hank and Joe
All of them should get a chance
Christmas carols to enhance
Like Olive in that reindeer song
Let all the angels sing along!

Perhaps attempt to dri-ive the car

We could blame the dog, sure
But right now we’ll stay where we are

When cats are here
Cats are in the bedroom, dear
Waking you, shaking you,
Meowing and making you
Get up and [...]

CBC Song
Tune: Don’t Sit Under The Apple Tree
CHORUS: Don’t go touching our CBC
It means too much to me

Cutting its funding back

Don’t go playing
Political games
With our wonderful CBC
Restore those cutbacks now!
VERSE 1 –
CBC we want you to remember your roots
Private media-that’s not you. You belong
To our country so speak to [...]

PRISON FARM PROTESTERS BUY COWS!

Friday August 13th, 2010 in Real Life Advice, Songs

Yesterday a woman came into the Credit Union where I work and told me she was drawing out enough money to buy back a cow which had been sold by our Federal Corrections when they made the monumentally stupid decision to close down the effective and efficient local prison farms.
I rushed right home and [...]

What Love REALLY Means!

Wednesday August 11th, 2010 in In My Life Stuff, Real Life Advice, Songs

Raised by two people extremely critical of everyone around us, I absorbed judging others with my mother’s milk. Then I hung around unkind, unloving, critical people and my goose sizzled. No love going on here.
Look at this shot of an uncritical person trying to look judgemental. This is what your face looks like when [...]

SAVE OUR PRISON FARMS SONG 2 – LITTLE TINY BRAINS (TUNE: Do Your Ears Hang Low?)

Monday June 21st, 2010 in Songs, Songs - Also see Raging Gran Songsite

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!
(SING first verse again)
3) [...]

1) They’re shutting down
Our prison farms

Yes, keep the lot
This is the word from Kingston! (clap-clap-clap)

3 STOOGES & BP OIL (Tune: White Sports Coat & Pink Carnation) – Pratfalls In The Oil Biz

Thursday June 3rd, 2010 in Politics, Songs, Songs - Also see Raging Gran Songsite

(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
They [...]

GAZA TZENA SONG

Wednesday June 2nd, 2010 in Songs, Songs - Also see Raging Gran Songsite

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, [...]
