Story behind the song
A song inspired by a conversation with Janice Blue of Go Vegan Texas radio, regarding the illegal trade in animal body parts and the diminishing population of wildlife globally. Our thanks to Mary Alice Pollard for creating the picture for this song.
Lyrics
'Save Our World' Body parts, every man comes through the forest stealing things my brothers need Body parts, they don't know how far their blood lust feeds the greed First is last, n' last is first but I don't see how man can ever be at peace And he's the one, the one who knows his actions break a life to cease Body parts, take the hands of beings living wild and free Body parts, man snuffs out the creatures, nothing left of me Would you see, a land without orang-utans and chimpanzees? I am you and you are me and we are every species Save our world Save our souls Save our world Save our souls Body parts, guns n' cold machinery to rob the land Body parts, a world within a world without a caring hand Free our hearts, free us from the magnitude of carnal wealth Leave the path, of war and killing life has only one life left... Save our world Save our souls Save our world Save our souls © Maria Daines/Paul Killington 2008

Another superb song which is thought provoking in the extreme, showing clearly again your passion for animal causes and the environment.. Maria, your way with words is amazing, and Paul, your music and production is top notch. Added of course to my "SIMPLY MARIA" Station. Peace and love, Carol.xx

I saw Jane Goodall awhile ago who spoke about the plight of Chimpanzees. I cannot write how much I appreciate your song. I get too choked up to continue.

What a BRILLIANT song. Powerful but full of soul. Very moving. beautifully sung and played.(Very catchy too:)) Such an important message to get across to people - there is so much to do, with so little time to do it. Alone it can feel such an uphill, relentless struggle, but together we can make a difference! We can all be that difference. xxx
WOW excellent song and the message rings clear ;)
