[obligatory WTO songs for the season - Will - from Phil K] ----- forwarded message ----- Date: Wed, 15 Dec 1999 22:48:21 -0800 From: Phil-Cary Karasick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> World Trade (sung to the tune of "Silver Bells") People clashing. Windows smashing. Chaos mile after mile. In the air we are feeling the tear gas.. Kids a-looting. Cops a-shooting. Rubber bullets galore. And on every street corner there's fear. World Trade. World Trade. What have you done to our city? What ding-a-ling, let you bring This mess to our peaceful place? Let us go, WTO, WTO (sung to the tune of "Let it Snow, let it snow") Oh the riots outside are frightful And they get much worse at nightfall. So remember: keep your head down low, WTO-WTO-WTO The mayor is sad and shaken. To a nightmare he awakened. What a crisis to undergo! WTO-WTO-WTO When the anarchists say goodbye, Once there's nary a building left clean. They'll be laughing with great delight All the way back to Eugene. Now the dumpster fires are dying. As some shoppers start their buying. But the memory will never go. WTO-WTO-WTO On The Twelve Days of Trade Talks (sung to the tune of "The 12 Days of Christmas") On the 12th day of trade talks, my city gave to me: 12 Marchers marching 11 Looters looting 10 Chanters chanting 9 Cops a-freaking 8 troopers trooping 7 Blocks a-burning 6 Merchants weeping 5 Poison clouds 4 Falling Bottles 3 Blunt clubs 2 Stinging eyes and Embarrassment on national tv.
