Bicycle Song

From The Raging Grannies Songbook edited by Jean McLaren and Heide Brown, 1993

Tune: Daisy, Daisy

Daisy, Daisy bicycling’s good for you
Driving ‘s crazy, car spew out CO2
We know we should not disparage
An elegant motocarriage
But take a hike, or ride a bike
The environment will love you!
Don’t you wish that we had commuter trains
Proper bike paths , or at least bicycle lanes?
Who needs an eight-lane highway?
Why can’t they do it my way?
We’d clean the air, have dough to spare
If only we used our brains…
