about

This is a heavy rocker featuring some awesome tenor recorder playing by Sabú. We originally wrote it back in 1998 but edited it and added some stuff to make it more relevant and turn it into more of reflection on human-nature relationship.

lyrics

I'm a friend of the seagulls
Of the river and the sea
It's the life of my waters
That I need to be free
Oh the godking is mighty
His noble priests are quite fine
But to the calm and wild waters
Belongs all that is mine
And every year our riverbank home is blessed
Every year by the holy Nile's bounty
And we can live, harvest our golden crops
And we can live by the holy Nile's bounty
And we can live among rabbits, cats, birds, bees, fish
And we can live by the holy Nile's bounty
The processions are joyful
And the pharaohs spring song
But when quietly sing my waters
That's when I will hum along
In later times men will build a forceful dam
To quell these ancient waves of life
On barren soil spoilt with a toxic wrong
You're out of balance, yearning, sold
So take my gift I wore close to my chest
Reminding you we can be safe in the elements
My lapis lazuli blue fish, lapis lazuli blue fish
Lapis lazuli blue fish, lapis lazuli blue fish
And every year our riverbank home is blessed
Every year by the holy Nile's bounty
And we can live, harvest our golden crops
And we can live by the holy Nile's bounty
And we can live among rabbits, cats, birds, bees, fish
And we can live by the holy Nile's bounty
So take my gift I wore close to my chest
Reminding you we can be safe in the elements
My lapis lazuli blue fish, lapis lazuli blue fish
Lapis lazuli blue fish, lapis lazuli blue fish
Lapis lazuli blue fish, lapis lazuli blue fish
Lapis lazuli blue fish, lapis lazuli blue fish
