From the recording Good Medicine
A song which visions the end of drought, both climactic and spiritual; that welcomes the reunification of man with nature as in ancient times; a song about truth and cessation of censorship of free and natural technologies

Mighty good medicine
I remember hearing about a clan who used to sing to bring the rain
Once a sovereign nation upon the land, will they ever sing again?
But there’s an echo ringing over the country, clamouring of dancing feet
And a thunder clap that lets water trapped in the sky be released
Come on and drench my skin, Open the heavens, bring it on home,
Mighty good medicine – healing the river, sand and stone
And only this morning Uncle John warning, “No end to this drought”
Trust nature with a problem – sooner or later, she’ll work it all out
Work it all out
I remember reading about a man who learned to open up the clouds
He had a big machine and he had a plan, but his dream was not allowed
They locked him away, destroyed his work and burnt his building down
How many more lives will be sacrificed before the truth is ever found?
Come on and drench my skin, Open the heavens, bring it on home,
Mighty good medicine – healing the river, sand and stone
And only this morning Uncle John warning, “No end to this drought”
Trust nature with a problem – sooner or later, she’ll work it all out
The prophecy of the standing stones is written in the stars
Twinkling constellations, not big cigars
Drench my skin – ooh – mighty good medicine – ooh
Lately I’ve been watching an aeroplane spinning webs across the sky
Dripping watercolour upon the wind and I have to wonder why
Some places get flooded; others turn to desert, where does the weather hide?
Is it somebody’s dollar, someone’s agenda, God knows it’s not mine!
Come on and drench my skin – open the heavens, bring it on home
Mighty good medicine – healing my heart, my soul, my bones
And only this morning Uncle John warning, “no end to this drought”
Trust people with a problem – sooner or later they’ll figure it out!
Drench my skin – ooh, mighty good medicine – ooh
Drench my skin – ooh, mighty good medicine - ooh
