Lyrics:

Capitalism is Killing Planet Earth

Welcome to the church of the good spirits against capitalism
Welcome to the church of the good spirits against capitalism

I look at the sky and ask to the good spirits 
Pour upon us the light of Martin Luther king
I look at the sky and ask to the good spirits
Pour upon us the light of Bob Marley
I look at the sky and ask to the good spirits 
Pour upon us the light of Nelson Mandela
I look at the sky and ask to the good spirits
Pour upon us the light of John Lennon

You're a Bible plague , yeah
You fool them all
You kill the children 
Inside us
You kidnapped me
So young
You owe me
My real life

and they say buy, buy , buy,buy, buy , buy
buy, buy , buy,buy, buy , buy

Capitalism  is Killing Planet Earth
Capitalism is Killing the Best of Us
Capitalism  is Killing Planet Earth
Capitalism is Killing the Best of Us

<Martin Luthr King's speech>
"I want to say to you as I move to my conclusion, as we talk about “Where do we go from here?”
 that we must honestly face the fact that the movement must address itself to the question of restructuring
 the whole of American society. There are forty million poor people here, and one day we must ask the question,
 “Why are there forty million poor people in America?” And when you begin to ask that question, you are raising
 a question about the economic system, about a broader distribution of wealth. When you ask that question, you begin
 to question the capitalistic economy. And I'm simply saying that more and more, we've got to begin to ask questions
 about the whole society. We are called upon to help the discouraged beggars in life's marketplace. But one day we must
 come to see that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring. It means that questions must be raised. And you
 see, my friends, when you deal with this you begin to ask the question, “Who owns the oil?” You begin to ask the question,
 “Who owns the iron ore?” You begin to ask the question, “Why is it that people have to pay water bills in a world that's
 two-thirds water?” These are words that must be said."

You're a Bible plague, yeah
You fool them all
You kill the children 
Inside us
You kidnapped me
So young
You owe me
My real life

and they say buy, buy , buy,buy, buy , buy
buy, buy , buy,buy, buy , buy

Capitalism  is Killing Planet Earth
Capitalism is Killing the Best of Us
Capitalism  is Killing Planet Earth
Capitalism is Killing the Best of Us

<Martin Luthr King's speech>
"Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi.
From every mountainside, let freedom ring.
And when this happens, and when we allow freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city,
 we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, 
Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual:
Free at last! Free at last!
Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!"

Capitalism is Killing Planet Earth (included speech by MLK)

Come April  				c. 2020 by M. A. Manetz

V1
On these four gray walls I've painted her picture with my mind.
Holdin' her in my dreams the only comfort I can find.
One more lonely winter in this cold and lonely place.
The only thing that's kept me sane is the memory of her face.

Chorus
Come April, I'll make it better,
Come April, it'll be so fine.
Come April, I'll make it up to her,
Come April, she'll be mine.

V2
Six months in this prison, six months till I'm free,
Six months since her last letter, does she still care for me?
My brother came to see me, said she's movin' to L.A.,
I tell myself come April, I'll find a way to make her stay.

Chorus

Bridge
Am I a fool to think that she would ever wait for me?
I don't blame her for leavin', but yet I still believe...

Chorus

Come April

Tom sent me this great track and I added some lyrics and vocals and
a little guitar.  It's always a pleasure and so much fun to work with Tom.
What a talent and what sweet guitar.   Most of you on SC know Tom , if not please check out his songs (Tom Adams).  A little Jerry Reed influence on this one.   Thanks again Tom

On Down The Road  original (Tom Adams and Chuck Aaron)

Track 7 from the album "B Sides, Alternates and Other Songs" ......... a collection of 10 songs written or recorded during the making of my "For the Stars" album in 2019 but didn't make the album.......releasing one song monthly thru October 2020!

"As I See You" is a song about the young growing up and how they are always seen by their parents and grandparents. It's also about the adults growing old and the need to have your family around you as you do. Musically, it includes some experimentation by me with guitar sounds that may or may not work for this song. It became an "other song" for this album as it was written while I was recording "For the Stars" but I wasn't ready to release it so here it is now a year later. 

ALL OF MY TRACKS ARE FREE TO DOWNLOAD direct from this page or at this link: lenaloise.bandcamp.com/music ........... CD's are available in the USA for the cost of postage at this link: lenaloise.bandcamp.com/merch

Like the Rabbit Passing Alice

Some folks just never settle down and time is of the essence!  A kind of nod to JJ Cale's Mr. Breeze.

Lyrics;
Every day a river will find the sea
You know you've found a forest just by seeing the trees
And people everywhere just wanna be free
I'm always somewhere else, nobody's gonna find me

Cause I've always been a rambler with a strong urge to fly
I'll never settle down under that big blue sky
I love ya, gotta go,  time to say goodbye
Like the rabbit passing Alice no time to tell you why

You've called the wrong number if I answer the phone
If you're sending me a letter it's addressee unknown
My door is always open but I'm never at home
It's good to be with someone, but I'm better alone

Look from where I'm standing, it's a big world out there
And I'm bound to find my dreams  but I just don't know where
And time's in short supply  no one has got much to spare
But I'm happy for the little time that you and I shared

I've always been a rambler with a strong urge to fly
I'll never settle down under that big blue sky
I love ya, gotta go,  time to say goodbye
Like the rabbit passing Alice no time to tell you why

And every day the river will find the sea
Not hard to find a forest when you're under the trees
And people everywhere just wanna be free
I'm always somewhere else is why you'll never find me

The original demo of Georgetown, from 2013

Guyana Songs

Georgetown [Demo - 2013]

Here we go, one more song... to change the world, who knew it would be a disco song. I wanted to do something upbeat and happy,  I got kinda mired down in the words.  Anyhow, back in my day, instead of a 'drop', we had a 'breakdown' in dance music, where towards the end of the song everything cut out except the drums, then the other instruments would gradually come back in and build up to a soaring final chorus. Well I'm bringing that back. Thanks for listening.

All written by me and my guitar, home produced and mixed just for fun as well, with virtual instruments and a midi keyboard. Purely for the enjoyment of it.
