I’m finding it so funny that of all my blog posts the one yesterday is getting so much attention. Where’s a photo of the jacket? So although you may find this entirely anticlimactic, here it is. And yes, Anne, with me in it. I can’t resist also including a bit of Wavy Gravy social commentary so have added the lyrics of one of his songs. Enjoy!!!

Basic Human Needs

And wouldn′t it be neat if the people that you meet had shoes upon their feet
And something to eat
And wouldn’t it be fine, now if all of human kind had shelter

Basic Human needs, basic human deeds, doing what comes naturally
Down in the garden, when no one is apart
Deep down in the garden, the garden of your heart

Wouldn′t it be grand if we all lend a hand so each one of us
could stand on a free piece of land
And wouldn’t it be thrilling if folks stopped their killing and started in tilling the land

Basic Human Needs, basic human deeds, doing what comes naturally
Down in the garden, when no one is a apart
Deep down in the garden, the garden of your heart

Not just churches, not just steeples, give me peoples helping peoples
Help your self and work out till the stars begin to shout, thank god for something to do

Wouldn’t it be daring if folks started sharing,
instead of comparing, what each other was wearing
And wouldn′t it be swell if people didn′t sell their mother earth

Basic Human needs, basic human deeds, doing what comes naturally
Down in the garden, when no one is apart
Deep down in the garden, the garden of your heart
