Waste at home is one thing
\nBut waste on the farm amounts
\nTo a massive loss of profit
\nWhich honestly now counts
\nIt has completely changed the market place
\nAll over the world
\nAnd its down to “outgrades”
\nWhere the supermarkets hurled<\/p>\n
Their arrogant specifications
\nDesigner foods so they
\nCould centralize and standardize
\nUs all along the way
\nThe change over was not exactly subtle
\nIt was a policy overnight
\nBut I think it changed perception
\nIt got a fair reception
\nBut not from little farmers they put up a fight<\/p>\n
Nature is diverse it truly has to be
\nEveryone of us is different, we
\nAlong with everything that grows on earth today
\nWe each have our uniqueness its the key
\nBut that is not the present day philosophy
\nIts corporate led and profits are the thing
\nUnless there is uniformity unless there is regularity
\nThe constancy of packaging won’t bring<\/p>\n
The output into what is mass production
\nThe characterless and monotonous ideal
\nFrom size to taste to weight its all consuming
\nBut in reality it isn’t real
\nIts lost its true identity its biodynamic quality
\nIts irregular in true terms its constant through and through
\nIt has affected all of us the way we see our vegetables
\nAnd has killed off the small farmer which is what they wanted to<\/p>\n
Its all about the bottom line the margin and the profit
\nAs prophets became hard to find sameness took a hold
\nConformity was paramount a mass assimilation
\nUncontrasting uninformed that was what we were sold
\nThe waste was for the farmer it was either dug back in the field
\nOr fed to the livestock to help safeguard some yield
\nThat waste might have accounted for at least thirty per cent
\nAnd people were starving in this world imagine the message that sent<\/p>\n
The move away from naturalness to peeling and washed and seeded
\nProcessing reduced the life force as many of you know
\nSo waste became another problem this time in the household
\nWhich only meant the family budget really had to grow
\nAnd people lost the ability the knowledge and the reasoning
\nThey all were being brainwashed into thinking it was right
\nThe yin and yang was mumbo jumbo consigned to another time
\nAnd so progress continued on its long and boring flight<\/p>\n
Small farmers lost their foothold but we seem to work with cycles
\nGradually they started to come back in different ways
\nThe organic the biodynamic the veganic did appear
\nVariable was possible diversity was acceptable
\nNutrition was important unconformable was here
\nThat movement brought much more unprocessed food up to our door
\nAll shapes and sizes big and tiny nothing was a sin
\nThe yin and yang was back again and some enjoyed the ride
\nAnd wasting very little felt really good inside<\/p>\n
Others were told why waste your time processing your food
\nWhen we can do that for you effective but so crude
\nVegetable waste rose steadily as people lost the plot
\nOuter leaves and tougher skins were more likely to rot
\nThey never realised the power of the supermarket clan
\nAnd of the corporate take over, the takeover of man
\nGenetically modified food was born to do away with waste
\nTo raise the margins skyward who cares about the taste
\nThere are so many add ons with the processes ahead
\nLife force is equivocal and we are being led<\/p>\n
Down a rocky path to so much waste we cannot see
\nSo it pays to buy organic or biodynamically
\nAnd eat it all the outer leaves chew it well and feel
\nThat life force, and that true taste for honestly its real
\nAnd we then gain so very much our skin our bodies through
\nAnd everything we buy we eat that is Duncan’s view
\nAnd all that growing energy is reflected in the way
\nYou will feel so much better and stronger by the day<\/p>\n
And the naturalness of your being will be reflected by
\nThe way you are,the way you feel, you will not have to try
\nThings will just come natural, your thinking,you will know
\nThat you are more unique as your knowledge base does grow
\nYour individuality will return and you will be
\nUsing both sides of your brain and just feeling free<\/p>\n
Work out ways to reduce waste eat it all and see
\nHow much cheaper good food is the processed crap can be
\nLeft on the supermarket shelves thats a message loud and clear
\nIt may save the planet save it do you hear<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
