Listen to Blue Gold

Written by: Lisa Sniderman/Aoede

It starts with a flick
flick a lit stick
stick is thrown down
down to the ground
washed away, washed away
Out of sight, out of mind

It starts with a bag
Un-degradable bag
Bag is blown down
down to the ground
washed away, washed away
Out of sight, out of mind

So tell me, does it all come down to you
And tell me, tell me,
What can we do
to keep you free to be

Blue gold it’s your time to shi-ine
Blue gold nature’s swell design
Blue gold it’s your time to rise-
And high time we realize

Soiled six-pack rings
rings bob and sink
some seagull’s caught
caught like some drink
Far away, far away
Out of sight, out of mind

Red, orange and blue
Blue plastic stew
Birds bite and chew
Chew this strange brew
Far away, far away
Out of sight, out of mind

So tell me, does it all come down to you
And tell me, tell me
What can we do
Are we too blind to see

Blue gold it’s your time to shi-ine
Blue gold nature’s swell design
Blue gold it’s your time

You ebb and you flow
You’re high then you’re low
You crash and you curl
You’re an ever-changing world

You ebb and you flow
You’re high then you’re low
You gleam and you glide
Take me for a ride-on your

Blue gold it’s your time to shi-ine
Blue gold nature’s swell design
Blue gold till the end of time
Blue gold nothing more divine
Blue gold it’s your time to rise…
and high time we realize…

It starts with a wave-
A new wave of change
