Party Invitation (29)

Party Invitation

1
I would like to mention Suzie
She has long inspired me
With her love for revolution
And the wilderness still free

Well she’s hoping you Goldie
With your love of being bold
Will embrace our revolution
That is starting to take hold

Planet saving is unusual
It begins with planting trees
And then rescuing the rivers
And protecting the high seas

We would love to have you Goldie
With your gift to lead the throng
This will draw people together
Since it feels good to belong

Naturally revolution
Has an anti-social name
Yet Suzie has assured me
That big business is to blame

Having sacrificed their scruples
By the gold they seek to make
Even when it means creation
Is then carved up like a cake

Planet saving is unusual
It begins with planting trees
And then rescuing the rivers
And protecting the high seas

We would love to have you Goldie
With your gift to lead the throng
This will draw people together
Since it feels good to belong

3

I suppose it’s not the norm
To attempt to save the world
So the children in the making
Will have reason to feel proud

Yet Heaven sounds better
Than some dormitory in hell
Even if the smug and certain
Might become the losers now

Planet saving is unusual
It begins with planting trees
And then rescuing the rivers
And protecting the high seas

We would love to have you Goldie
With your gift to lead the throng
This will draw people together
Since it feels good to belong

4

No doubt this will surprise you
How we feel you are the one
To draw us close together
When all is said and done

Well it’s up to you Goldie
If we come across as odd
Just remember planet saving
Sounds like music to our God

Planet saving is unusual
It begins with planting trees
And then rescuing the rivers
And protecting the high seas

We would love to have you Goldie
With your gift to lead the throng
This will draw people together
Since it feels good to belong

You can see the birds migrating
On the back of summer gone
As they fly in fine formation
To a new land just beyond

A sudden change in climate
Like a storm close to the shore
And an angel will then guide them
To a distant land that the birds adore


The End
