First Public Perfor mance of the NEW Green Liberal Democrat anthem
Southwell Liberal Democrats in Nottinghamshire were the party members lucky enough to participate in the first public performance of the new GLD anthem, penned by founding Chair of the Green Lib Dems, Keith Melton. Even though I am saying so myself (see the byline above!) it was a stirring rendition.
I am sure that 95% of you reading this will have been at party Glee Clubs over the years, so you will be familiar with that old Liberal anthem "The Land". So - think of that tune with new words. It may even take over as THE party anthem in years to come, who knows, but you might try and memorise the chorus for when YOU take part. Enjoy...
Chorus
The Earth, the Earth
This is our Planet Earth
The Earth, the Earth
The land that gave us birth
How can we destroy it
Now we know what it is worth
Save the earth from the people
Animals are crying out to save their only home
The birds are also screeching to leave their home alone
Fish and whales are joining in amongst the crashing foam
Save the earth from the people.
Chorus
Climate change is killing us from too much C-O-2
Plastic waste is everywhere in oceans grey and blue
Poison gases choking us which cars and engines spew
Save the earth from the people
Chorus
Politicians we can`t trust to save our planet now
Corbyn, May and Donald Trump are names we`ll disavow
Perhaps we`ll find a way to save it, please just ask us how
To save the earth from the people
Final chorus
