Feb 18: 'The Clock Winds Down'

This is a track by the Irish musician Christy Moore. 

It has an important message on the theme of climate breakdown.

The lyrics were written by Jim Page.

An extract from the lyrics:

Warning signs years ago

We did not want to know

All consuming selfish ways

Now there’s a price to pay

As the Clock Winds Down

The ice caps melt The Amazon burns

To the point of no return

The grid goes down Screens go blank

We’ll be walking down the plank

As the Clock Winds Down

See the children take to the streets

When they hear Greta Thunberg speak

Watch the young warriors climb down from the trees

Chain themselves to machinery
