about

‘The Hand that Feeds the Machine’ is the new single from Melbourne rock’n’rollers Lost Canoe. Recorded at the band’s home studio/jam room ‘Olive Branch Studio’ and mixed and mastered by C&C at Life Coach Records, this is a raw and honest insight into the band doing what they love the most and do best - exorcising their demons live and leaving everything they have on the floor of their makeshift jam room.

The single is accompanied by the incredible artwork, produced by Ishi Neve

lyrics

I Talk in profit and loss, and less of the latter,
Talk is cheap, it's money that matters.
You call it greed, I call it success.

So please allow me to introduce myself, I'm a man on a mission with a tonne of wealth and mantra
TAKE, TAKE, TAKE, TAKE, TAKE give less.

And us business men, we still drink your wine,
but we'll dangle the carrot and you'll take it every time.
We just gotta give you something to believe.
Lies and myths and fantasies, it's all music to my ears,
each time that we 'Trump' facts with faith and fear.

Chorus:
So spare me your shame, cuz i don't feel no guilt.
I got ambition, and a mandate to build

Higher, bigger, better, than has ever been.
No you can't bite the hand that feeds the machine.

I'll line the pockets of those who i need,
you gotta get your hands dirty when you're planting the seeds
don't take a miracle, just a solid plan!
Then what's done is done, my race is run,
Don't blame me, cuz I ain't the one, you chose this now live with it
I'M YOUR MAN,

Chorus:
So spare me your shame, cuz i don't feel no guilt.
I got ambition, and a mandate to build



So spare me your shame, cuz i don't feel no guilt.
I got ambition, and a mandate to build

Deeper Darker Dirtier,ain't no one said it was clean,
no you can't bite the hand that feeds the machine
