"Progress" originally written and recorded by Midnight Oil.
Its fangs have only sharpened with age.
We offer this version for free.
If you dig it, we highly recommend that you check out the works of Midnight Oil (and if you ever see a copy of their live album "Scream In Blue"... GRAB THAT THING!)
Much Love, Go Vote!

LYRICS:
Say yes to a real life ambition, say yes to our hopes and our plans
Forget about your indecision, let's get the beast off our land
A tree that can grow no longer, a beach that has got no sand
I would pay out a king's ransom, if we could just understand
Got your last meal, filled up with pesticide
Hamburger chain third world infanticide
Got robot car your jobs will disappear
It's the politics of a brand new year
Manhattanization is coming, open your eyes if you dare
Carry us on to the crossroads, come to your senses and care
16 million, I can't hear you at all
Some say that's progress
I say that's cruel
You may be safe in your hemisphere
But there's so much junk in the stratosphere
We got our eyes on the firmament, hands on the armaments
Heads full of arguments, and words for our monuments
supported by 13 fans who also own “Progress (Midnight Oil)”
Still tearing it up after all these years! Thanks for everything guys - your music has and continues to be cathartic, therapeutic and relevant with each new release. Roll The Hard Six
The songs on the latest from Worriers hurtle forward breathlessly, with hook after hook topped by scorching vocal melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 16, 2023
With guitar work that recalls the highest heights of Polvo, New Lands brings an emo approach to post-punk fretwork. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 15, 2023
