INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION

AUDIO

AN OLD SONG BUT THE MESSAGE HOLDS TRUE

INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION a song recorded on my first studio recorded CD The Hippies Were Right way back when is now streaming on Folk Tyme Radio

The message in the song holds true to this day … in fact maybe even more so now with the current presumption that Mother Earth is being withered away by the very things that the Industrial Revolution and all the advances in science and technology have provided for us humans to use everyday. For me I think Mother Earth will survive long after the the Human Race has gone the way of the dinosaurs.

LYRICS

Many a men died at Bastille and Eureka Stockade took more still

Many a Russian died a Bolshevik death and many an Englishman hung by the neck

The American Revolution cost us few and Mao’s upheaval a million or two

Or the Indian Revolution that Ghandi had won well none of those the deadliest one

Industrial Revolution nobody wins Industrial Revolution brought nothing but sin

Industrial Revolution were in for a fall Industrial Revolution is killing us all

Industrial Revolution is killing us all

It gave us the car and assembly line mind it gave us unions and all that kind

It gave us all artificial light so we can rage on into the night

It gave us oil and hard hard steel microwaves and the chemical meal

Radios and TV junk big ol’ airplanes and a jet lag funk

Industrial Revolution got no Constitution Industrial Revolution brought us pollution

Industrial Revolution were in for a fall   Industrial Revolution is killing us all

Industrial Revolution is killing us all

Now we all got computers and email junk high speed internet and Space Age bunk

We’re loaded to gills with high fashion toys makin’ that garbage just to keep us employed

We build em fast as light speed but they don’t last so long built in redundancy

We killed off the Ozone filled the oceans with junk can’t see the stars through all that gunk

Industrial Revolution nobody wins Industrial Revolution brought nothing but sin

Industrial Revolution got no Constitution Industrial Revolution brought us pollution

Industrial Revolution were in for a fall   Industrial Revolution is killing us all

Industrial Revolution is killing us all

Industrial Revolution were in for a fall the writing is right there up on the wall

Industrial Revolution is killing us all
