9. Soothe the Machinery feat. Yvette Tollar – yvette-vocals, rich-bass, david-piano & synth, larnell-drums

This song was written in response to the Canadian government’s embarrassing decision regarding the Kyoto Agreement. What a shame to be one of only 3 countries in the world (along with Japan and the US of course) who refuse to join the rest of the planet in their effort to make a positive change to combat the effects of global climate change. We can all do more.

lyrics

words by rich brown

Turn the hourglass before it runs
Cheating the time we have left
A day away from eternity
Cultivate the wheels of progress
Turning of a raging tide

Darker shades to the Blue & Green
Drink as the ice melts away
Take heed the lessons of wind and sea
Consequence of feeding wild wolves
Filed under “Acts of God”

And as the skies cry
Watch them soothe machinery
Try to turn back the hands of time
World keeps turning turning
I hear the wind sigh
It’s a haunting melody
As machines suffocate the trees
we keep moving moving on…
