Yesterday we sketched out a new song, and we’re sharing it here for those who like our songs that are still bubbling away in the Pandorean brewing pot. It’s a peace song with a pinch of trickster energy. The first two lines of the chorus derive from one of our favourite quotes, ‘The majority is always wrong; the minority is rarely right’ by Hendrik Ibsen. We hope you enjoy our latest musical offering.
It’s the cult of
having to be right
It’s the game of
proving your might
But have you sought to
lay down your gloves
and walk that gentle road
home to your loves?
The majority is always wrong
the minority is rarely right
Can we sing a different song?
Can we give away this fight?
Strong positions on
global affairs
Stirs the guns of
ideological warfare
We may be right or
we may be wrong
Or perhaps we could be listening
to someone else’s song
The majority is always wrong
the minority is rarely right
Can we sing a different song?
Can we give away this fight?
The majority is always wrong
the minority is rarely right
Can we sing a different song?
Can we give away this fight?
Go ahead call us conspiracists and fringe
and feel free to take that GMO syringe
We won’t fight you to stop you doing harm
just don’t expect us to put it in our arms
The majority is always wrong
the minority is rarely right
Can we sing a different song?
Can we give away this fight?
The majority is always wrong
the minority is rarely right
Can we sing a different song?
Can we give away this fight?
It’s the cult of
having to be right
It’s the game of
proving your might
But have you sought to
lay down your gloves
and walk that gentle road
home to your loves?
Nice one!!
Thanks Sam!
Just sat in the sun to listen to your new song. I found it very moving. Especially the line about someone else’s song. Thank you, beautiful family. Xx
Thanks Natasha!
We have a sixth verse spring up this morning:
Who bombs
never wins
Right and wrong
is the game that kills our friends
Each of us lose
When we parrot the news
The experts paid to spruik
The establishment’s views
Love it!!
yeah, it’s fitting in nicely atm 🙂
Such a beautiful song and beautifully sung. Moved to tears. Bless you all.
Oh, thanks Kate, glad it got your tear glands flowing.
Thank you, I appreciate this.
Our pleasure.
Thanks , so good to listen to your new song!
We don’t have to bite into the bait of the many offers of being at war with each other. I look forward to any opportunities which might turn up to sing with you.
Here is a song Luke made when he was 13/14 years old. My favourite line is “ ‘cause you’re not some lonely accident , not a victim of your age , but a miracle the world is waiting for to take the stage “ THIS IS IT
