The Twelve Days of Christmas

On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me
A gift from a sweatshop overseas.

On the second day of Christmas
Toys made by kids
and a gift from a sweatshop overseas....

12 Billions without water
11 Unfed nations
10 Na-tions invaded
9 Bombs falling from planes
8 Evil multinationals
7 workers without unions
6 Cancer causing fumes
RAM-PANT-COR-PORATE GREED
4 four by fours
Third world debt
Toys made by kids
And a gift from a sweat shop overseas.

The other christmas carols we sang (and a whole load more) can be found at
