about

While on a visit to see friends in Wales I happened upon Greta's book of speeches, it had just been released, and as someone who has been following her since September 2018 I bought 3 copies and then I wrote this song using lines from her first speech September 8th 2018.
Written June 2019.
Not yet recorded in a studio, this is in my cottage on the i-phone voice message recording function, with a friend from the "Shade Seekers" on a drum box thingy.
Enjoy

lyrics

If people knew… this……
If people knew…. that….
If people took time to ask……
to learn the facts and listen

They wouldn’t need her
the science is clear
they would come sit with her
they’d understand they’d make a plan
Seeing is believing, Seeing is believing,
Seeing is believing )

If people only knew…..what
If people only knew…. how
If people took the time ask,
to stop and talk and change their path
The nightmare is real
It’s really quite severe
The moment is here
What’s the point of school if you obey the rules
Seeing is believing
Seeing is believing,
Seeing is believing …..

The Rebel yell here
the rebel-lution’s here
we're saving the biosphere
oh the choice is clear we’re outa here
so scream
make it through

It’s up to us to see it through
it’s up to us me and you

I have been hanging out here on this blue green dot for enough time to write a song or two..I am a bit of a punk but more a hippie, (they really aren't that different)
I have an unstoppable desire to comment on humanity, both good and bad, my songs reflect my observations. I love this little planet.
It's the best one I have been on so far. ... more
