about

Save it - don’t shave it! Progress and development
begin within (George Harrison was right!)

lyrics

I know it’s no simple matter
In fact it’s a question of life & death
Some people seem to be getting fatter & fatter
While the skinny ones fade away like breath
Say goodbye to the dying
Save your love for the living
There’s no harm in trying
If you take a little less & do some giving (you can)

SAVE THE COUNTRY
DO WHAT YOU FEEL IS RIGHT
SAVE THE COUNTRY NOW
BEFORE THERE’S NOTHING LEFT

Don’t you abuse all the minerals
They’re very useful to the vegetables
Without vegetables there won’t be any animals
And one of these days there may be no more people
Don’t talk to me about the future
The problem lies in what you’re doing right now
Making plans & scheming just to suit yourself
But if you ruin the land you’re done for anyhow (so)

SAVE THE COUNTRY
CAN YOU HEAR THE CHILDREN SHOUT?
WE’VE GOT TO SAVE THE COUNTRY SOMEHOW
AIN’T THAT WHAT SELF-PRESERVATION IS ALL ABOUT?

This old planet ain’t no dead hunk of earth
She’s milk & honey & she rocks & she rolls
Home sweet home from birth to rebirth
You mean you didn’t know we’ve been hurting her soul?
Better figure out exactly what you need
Before you grab whatever you want
Maybe you’ve been working only for greed
But why build a factory? Just grow a plant (and)

SAVE THE COUNTRY
COME ON EVERYBODY SHOUT
GOTTA FIND A WAY TO SAVE THE COUNTRY NOW
AIN’T THAT WHAT SALVATION IS ALL ABOUT?

about

Guano Breath Malaysia

My output mostly dates back to the 1980s and has been heard by a mere handful. This isn't what I'm into now but at least I'm not too embarrassed about it.

Collaborations with others & freestyle choreographic works form an integral part of my archive.

I enjoy being the world's least ambitious musician.
