Steam Packet (Offshore Bank Accounts)
I hear they are catching on to this in America. The Eu fair trade wonders too if big business really does benefit anyone. A simple song, sung in a low key kind of way.
Who is indebted to who
When they provide vital links
They don’t like the deal
They just go bust
When they employ so many
who owns who
in the name freedom
What can you do
big business is kind
big business is tolerant
When they make lots of money
for offshore bank accounts
Western democracy told you that you were free
while the birds and bees keep you busy
revelation at the bottom of your glass
that you were sold what you already owned

5th Track on Election – Never Vote for What They Want
5th Track – Never Vote For What They Want
Life is like that, we have heard it said. People rarely do what they want, so why should they vote any differently. The politics of fear is a big thing and very real in small and big societies. We focus on what people are afraid of. That then leaves little time over for what we want. Not complicated. Raise it from the bottom of the ocean where it is buried beneath the fear and maybe we find that there is nothing there. Awareness is a long and sobering game. It is real though and just a little can go much further than we expect. This song took a lot longer to do for all sorts of technical reasons. The meaning is parallel to the process.
Recorded in the fall of 2017, written in 2016.
Due for release in the fall of 2018.
