URBAN LEGEND
Some of you are aware that I am doing a project to try and put together an album of original songs about the plight of the rhino to raise funds for the Rhinose Foundation. It is a cause very dear to my heart.
A few of the forum members have already come to the party with songs for the album and I am very grateful. If anybody else has a song or would like to write a song PLEASE drop me a pm.
I wrote this song to pitch to a professional singer-songwriter here in South Africa who is also a personal friend of mine (our dogs are friends and regularly have "play dates" at each other's houses!).
So any help with this song before I pitch to her would be much appreciated.
Lyrics:
93 million
people in Vietnam
Fathers rushing off to work
Children playing in the park
Mothers pushing prams
They all want what we want
Money's no problem now
But dont they know
That its all urban legend
And dont they know
That the rhino is the victim
The read somewhere about a drink
Powder ground from horn
From Africa. They wont care
Its the drink of millionaires
A cure to end all cures
They all want what we want
Money's no problem now
But dont they know
That its all urban legend
And dont they know
That the rhino is the victim
And if this myth starts taking hold
Among the billion in china
Thats the end for the couple thousand
Rhinos in Africa
But dont they know
That its all urban legend
And dont they know
That the rhino is the victim
Too late to learn a lesson
Its all urban legend
The rhino is the victim
Born in a crooked system
