Come all you climate fighters
Melody: Unknown
Text: Skriba
It´s a call and response song.
Each line is song by one or a few and is repeated by all. Tralala… is sung by all
1)
Come all you climate fighters, sing with all your might
It is time for us to fight
Our Earth is far too warm
Heat and floods and tearing storm.
We need action here today
If we want the Earth to stay
Tralalala……..
2)
Come all you climate fighters, sing with all your might
It is time for us to fight
No more poison in the ground
We want trees all safe and sound
Too much pork and too much beef
Give the planet lasting grief
Tralalala…..
3)
Come all you climate fighters, sing with all your might
It is time for us to fight
Oil and coal was yesterday
Wind and sun is here to stay
Green’s the colour of the day
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh-Yeay
Tralalala….
4)
Come all you climate fighters, sing with all your might
It is time for us to fight
Let´s take care of Mother Earth
Let´s take care of Mother Earth
Let´s take care of Mother Earth (to be whispered)
Let´s take care of Mother Earth (to be shouted)
Tralalala…..
Round and round

1)
Åhhh……. (oh)
I wish I had a slipper
or had some fancy shoes
But most of all I need
the high emissions to reduce
Hey
Round and round and round we go
We will never stop
Crises are increasing and
we’re more than just fed up.
2)
Åhhh…….
I wish I had a chicken
I wish I had a cow
But even more I wish to stop
the climate crises now
Hey
Round and round and round we go
We’re not going home
Climate crises must be solved
so we intend to roam.
3)
Åhhh..…
I wish I could pretend that
the world was not at risk
and that the climate would not be
on our problem list
Hey
Round and round and round we go
never giving up
We will all together try
to make emissions stop
4)
Åhhh……
We are getting older
but we will find no rest
because we need to gather try
to make our future best
Hey
Round and round and round we go
side by side unite!
Grannies: we are out to fight
and we shall never hide
HEY

Come and sing a simple song of Climate
Sing it like you never sang before
People everywhere
let it fill the air
Sing it in the morning when you rise

Wake up, join in singing here together
Preserve the Earth and let´s take action now.
Like a bumblebee
in the nature free
humm and fly and sing this lovely song:

We need to wake up
We need to wise up
We need to open our eyes
Do it now now now
We need to build a better future
And we need to start right now
2)
We’re on a planet
That has a problem
We’ve got to solve it, get involved
Do it now now now
We need to build a better future
And we need to start right now
3)
Make it greener
Make it cleaner
Make it last, make it fast
Do it now now now
We need to build a better future
And we need to start right now
4)
No point in waiting
Or hesitating
We must get wise, no more lies
Do it now now now
We need to build a better future
And we need to start right no
