about

This song is about our need to look after this green ball we live on. It's time to vote with our feet. This little song is about rejecting the ridiculousness of political power and taking this into our own hands.

Thanks to everyone who sent gang vocals during lockdown - they are loud and proud on this track!. I love listening to you singing with us!!!

"Whenever any great transformation has happened, it has happened from the bottom up... the green and environmental movement has to go to the people" Satish Kumar.

There are things we can do. Let's do them.

If you're interested in reading more about the stories behind this song and other tracks of ours, you can buy my eBook here The Stories Behind The Songs - thanks!

lyrics

I looked after you when you were small, before you could stand on two feet.
You grew and grew, learned to stand tall, I gave you all you would need.
I gave you all of my treasure
You rely on it all beyond measure
I looked after you
Look after me

Look after me, let me breathe, swim in a crystal clear sea
Dance with the honeybees, walk in the trees let me breathe
Look after me
Look after me.

They say that pride precedes a fall but it's time to turn down the heat
It's not too late to give it your all, it's time to vote with your feet.
I know you think that you're clever, but even you can't control the weather.

Look after me, let me breathe, swim in a crystal clear sea
Dance with the honeybees, walk in the trees let me breathe
Look after me
Look after me.

Oh oh let me breathe
Oh oh look after me
Oh oh let me breathe
Oh oh look after me

Look after me, let me breathe, swim in a crystal clear sea
Dance with the honeybees, walk in the trees let me breathe
Look after me
Look after me.
