This song is for Elephant Journal and possibly the Walk the Talk show if food is the topic. I am also sketching out other versions for shows related to bikes, yoga, gardens, carrying our own cups, spoons, plates and romance.

I realize parts of this song sound weird – I need to fix this song.

Vocalists, musicians or bands who would like to help me record a better version are invited to contact me, Stele. Get part of the copyright of the song for helping arrange and record the song, get a chance to win $444 and maybe get famous. I want to get a nice version with vid to Waylon at Elephant Journal, so musicians and vid artists, help me get this baby finished.
