Anthem Lyrics
And Did they Frack

And did they frack in ancient times?
Poisoning waters; once so clean?
And were their fil-thy rigs of doom
On England’s plea-sant-pastures seen?

And did the On-ly face of Truth
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And do the frackers know time is up
To use their dark sa-tanic drills.

Come join us here and sing your song:
Sing of the justice you desire.
Assist us NOW!  These frackers are wrong.
We now remember:  We’re the Choir.

We will not cease from camp-ing here,
Nor shall we rest till fracking’s banned.
Till we have kicked these frackers out
Of England’s green-and pleasant land.

Calling the Human Race

Calling the hu-man race
Back into no-ble space.
Here is our place.
We are victorious
Happy and glorious
Long may the feeling be with-us
Giving us this grace.
May my true self a-rise
Open my wea-ry-eyes
And may I see.
Cle-ar my clou-dy mind
I am no lon-ger-blind
May human-beings tru-ly find
Who-oo we can be.
We now know who we are:
We are the Choi-R
Long may we sing:
We will for-get no more
We are the li-on’s roar.
Care-ta-king sea and land and shore,
And our so-vereign-ty.
