Climate Christmas Carols

Borrowed from a march I took part in earlier this month.

Jingle Bells
Emissions here, Emissions there, Emissions every day.
The Tories know that one day soon the Earth will have to pay. Hey!

Offsets here, offsets there,
Offsets every day!
Let us keep on drilling while the Third World pays our way. Hey!

Selling dirty oil
Stinking up the air
Never was our right
Never was too fair (cough, cough, cough)

A fair and binding deal
That is what we need
Canada must stop this madness
And show that we can lead! Hey!

Climate Change is Coming to Town
(To the tune of Santa Claus is Coming to Town)

Oh, you better watch out, you better not cry, better to act
I’m telling you why
Climate change is coming to town!

We`re making it hot, we`re raising the sea
Gonna feel like it`s a hundred degrees
Climate change is coming to town!

If Canada keeps on stalling
The poles will soon be lakes
The air will stink like petrol fumes
Sign a treaty for goodness sake!

Oh! We`re making a list, we`re checking it twice
We know Canada`s been naughty not nice
Climate change is coming to town!

Deck the Halls
False solutions from our government
Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Oil profits all year round
Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Wonky schemes and massive profits
Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Not the way to save our climate
Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
