The Gruffalo has a long-running marketing partnership with the Forestry Commission (https://www.forestry.gov.uk/gruffalo). 

This is our community song asking Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler to join us in reminding the Forestry Commission they should not be selling off our lovely countryside to oil drilling companies.

Gruffalo Blues (Save Leith Hill)
=========================

I'm gonna tell you a story
About a beautiful old hill
And how the bad man's coming
With his dirty oil drill
Pumping acid in the water
And poisoning the land
All for the sake of an extra
Couple of coins in his hand.

Gruffalo we're asking
Have nothing more to do
With the Forestry Commission
Please we're begging you
Cos they sold our hill to the bad man
And couldn't give two hoots
Please spread the word to all your friends,
Tell Julia and Axel too.

Hey Mr Gruffalo
Have nothing more to do
With the Forestry Commission
Please we're begging you
Cos they sold our hill to the bad man
With his dirty oil drill
Help us Mr Gruffalo
Save lovely Leith Hill.

Hey Mr Gruffalo
Have nothing more to do
With the Forestry Commission
Please we're begging you
Cos the bad man is coming
With his filthy oil drill
We've got to stop him now
Before our kids all end up ill.

Help us Mr Gruffalo
Help us Mr Gruffalo
Help us Mr Gruffalo
Save our hill.
