Raging Grannies are Conspiring
(Tune: I've Been Workin' on the Railroad)

Raging Grannies are conspiring to make folks laugh a lot
Satire is so very frightening, it must be a terrorist plot!
Listen to their conversation - they rage for peace not war,
For dignity and for democracy. Hear their voices soar!

Chorus: Metal in their hips, metal in their knees
Hiding weapons none can see.
We have found them out, Know what they're all about-
Peace and social justice conspiracy.

Someone's singing for justice
Someone's singing for an end to war
Someone's singing and spreadin' the truth
Scaring us to the core.

(We're scared of) Gaggles of grannies singing their songs
Gaggles of Grannies make us quake'
Gaggles of Grannies must be watched ....
Our security's at stake!

Grannies with their hats, a bunch of old bats
Scaring us with what they sing
If they stay in tune, that will spell our doom -
Spreading freedom and democracy

(We're Raging) Grannies singing for justice
Grannies singing for an end to war
Grannies singing and spreadin' the truth . .
World peace forevermore!
