1) Not a defense
(tune Ol’ grey mare)
Just following orders is not a defense
Not a defense
Not a defense
Just following orders is not a defense
In a court of law
2) Away in Detention
(tune Away in a Manger)
V1
Away in Detention
No crib nor a bed
The little boy Jesus lays down his sweet head
The bright lights are shining for twenty-four
Poor little boy Jesus can’t sleep anymore.
V2
Despised by your neighbors
And filmed at each turn
Your big shots ride jets with make-up artists
You can’t mask your crimes and cover your soul
And we will dance while you’re in the hole.
V3
Sooner or later the fascist will leave
And you will be stranded
with your crimes exposed
Abandon your hate and ask for grace
And join us to cheer in the joy of each race
3) Feliz Navidad
(Original tune)
Feliz Navidad
Feliz Navidad
Feliz Navidad
Próspero año y felicidad
Feliz Navidad
Feliz Navidad
Feliz Navidad
Próspero año y Felicidad
We don’t want no more deportations
We don’t want no more deportations
We don’t want no more deportations
From the bottom of our hearts.
4) Jesus Loves the little Children (original tune and lyrics)
Jesus loves the little children
All the children of the world
Red and yellow, black and white
They are precious in His sight
Jesus loves the little children of the world
5) This Little Light of Mine
This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine,
This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine
This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.
Let it shine all over the world, I’m gonna let it shine
Let it shine all over the world, I’m gonna let it shine

Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.

(frosty the snowman tune)
Intro:Dumpety dump, dump, Trumpety Trump Trump, ICE is lying low.
Dumpety dump, dump, Trumpety Trump Trump, Donny has to go.
Verse 1:Frosty the ICE Man, was an angry, creepy soul
With a mask to hide that he’s dead inside With a heart made out of coal.
Verse 2:Frosty the ICE Man, believes the fairy tales they say
He would be okay if he got away With cruelty every day.
Bridge:There must be some black magic in that Fox News show he hears,
For when it goes into his head, he gets shit between his ears.
Verse 3:Oh, Frosty the ICE Man is as sad as he can be,
And the children say he should go away Leave the rest of us in peace.
Verse 4:Frosty the ICE Man, we hope it’s hot today,
And we’ll keep the heat up on every street Until you melt away.
Outro:
Dumpety dump, dump, Trumpety Trump Trump, ICE is lying low. Dumpety dump, dump, Trumpety Trump Trump, Donny has to go.
7) HOLLY JOLLY CHRISTMAS
(ICE edition)
We’ll have a holly, jolly Christmas, if we get ICE out of here,
We all know that when they go, everyone will cheer.
We’ll have a holly, jolly Christmas, and when ICE is history,
We’ll say hello to friends we know and immigrants we meet.
Ho, ho, here they go, in masks and green fatigues,
Playing dressup on the street, pathetic as can be.
We’ll have a holly, jolly Christmas and in case you didn’t hear,
End ICE folly for a holly, jolly Christmas this year.
8) Jingle Bells, Protest edition
Verse:Dashing through the streets, in unmarked vans all day,
Disturbing all our peace, ’til they’re chased all away.
Protesting their evil, making spirits gay,
What fun it is to laugh and sing and tease ICE here all day.
Oh!Chorus: Jingle bells, Donny smells, Kristi ran away!
Oh what fun it is to ride their butts all through the day, hey!
Jingle bells, Donny smells, Bovino ran away!
Teasing ICE is twice as nice until they run away!
Verse:A day or two ago, I saw ICE on a ride
And cameras soon came out and pointed at their sides
The ICE guys looked around, the crowd started to boo…
They ran away when they heard us say,
“What would Jesus do.”
Oh!Chorus:Jingle bells, Donny smells, Kristi ran away!
Oh what fun it is to ride
Their butts all through the day, hey!
Jingle bells, Donny smells, Bovino ran away!
Teasing ICE is twice as nice Until they run away!
