Long Song Description:

Story Behind the Song:
The result of an all-nighter coffee and poetry sampling with unkown poet Gill Write in the Northern California wine counrty in 1974 after a Woodbine gig. So impressed with the prolific interior life of this phyisically impared man that I tried to write the music and vocals to match his vision of frustration and explosive angst clawing to get out and be heard.

Music by Roger Bolt
Arrangement by Roger Bolt & JoAnna Noble
Adapted from a poem by G. Wright
Heart pump, brain sing
Senses reel from everything
Body ache, felling pain
The bittersweet then back again.
Why not design a great big room
Complicated as a loom
Where fabric never seen before
As fresh as dew begins to pour
Off the wheels and out the door
Off the wheels and out the door
If a wheel turns
And a product seems to say
I am made of dreams
Hold me, see meĀ
let me be a part of you
Or leave me.
In fact it was all done before
A factory built from a scholar's lore
Except of course we now by chance
Call it all a renaissance.
The Factory functions on and on
The loom keeps fabric pouring out
The pace is civil, though once a shout
Was heard to say.
It's done
It's done
It's done.
