about

Here is the tenth monthly release for 2023, from ’Katmandino’.

This is the single release for October 2023.

“Upturned Jars” is a protest song, about the state of the environment and a ‘call to arms’ for everyone.

The recurring motif of ‘Make the world a better place’ is also a demand for nations to work together to address this problem; as it needs a global response, rather than different countries scratching around in competition with each other.

Only when we all come together and accept mutual responsibility for our destiny, will we ever stand a chance of finding a solution to our changing climate.

It’s more about our survival as a species (the planet is going to be fine), so we need to approach the situation as a human race, that still want to be here in a 100 yrs time.

“If we dont do something sooner, we’ll never forgive ourselves.” Which is less a prophecy, and more a statement of hope. A hope that we can keep the faith, that we can collectively find a way …. we will strive to get there eventually.

Hope that you enjoy the song, as much as we did recording it.

lyrics

Upturned Jars

Elevator falls
Into pollution river
That rolls up in cigarette bay
At the foot of landfill mountain
Beside the quiet of oil spill lake

Upturned jars
Abandoned cars
Violate the rule of thumb
As your heart beats deep inside
To the rhythm of a different drum

Dream of what you can become
Make the world a better place (x2)

Its not gonna be easy
But the future’s in our hands

Make the world a better place________

What gives us the right to take take take
And leave nothing in return
Except a trail of misplaced
Non disposable waste
And lessons that we should have learned

Upturned jars
Abandoned cars
Violate the rule of thumb
As your heart beats deep inside
To the rhythm of a different drum

Dream of what you can become
Make the world a better place (x2)

Its not gonna be simple
But we make plans anyway

Make the world a better place_______

Hope that we will never succumb
To the edge of kingdom come
A culture just thrown away
Just to but another the following day
It really doesn’t work that way

Make the world a better place (x2)

If we don’t do something sooner
We’ll never forgive ourselves.

Make the world a better place_________
