    Story Behind the Song
    I wrote this on a lunch break from Apple. It was created as fast as I could play it. The lyric was inspired by the world's desire for profit. It really has a Lennon/McCartney feel. The ost fun recording this was doing the bass line. I'm starting to develop a bit of a style on the bass. The vocals were an easy one take. The first to be promoted, this song has received a good deal of airplay in the U.S.

    Lyrics
    Trickle Down
    Copyright 2002 by Stephen Teter

    You say the margin's too tight
    Well, all right
    We wouldn't hurt your chance for success
    Don't make any less
    Than what you think you richly deserve

    It's not your fault
    There are hungry people
    With a little luck they'll starve to death
    It's not your fault
    The system is crippled
    With your trickle-down philosophies
    Ah
    Oo oo oo ooh
    Your trickle down philosophies
    Oo oo oo ooh
    Won't you trickle, trickle, trickle, trickle
    Down to me
    Ah

    Your best defense
    Has always been a potent offense
    Well, now you're offensive
    And I'm so sick of hearing these words


    It's not your fault
    There are hungry people
    With a little luck they'll starve to death
    It's not your fault
    The system is crippled
    With your trickle-down philosophies
    Ah
    Oo oo oo ooh
    Your trickle down philosophies
    Oo oo oo ooh
    Won't you trickle, trickle, trickle, trickle
    Down to me
    Ah

    It's not your fault your business is booming
    When the corporations profit, you win
    It's not your fault the people are losing
    In this trickle-down society

    Oo oo oo ooh
    Your trickle-down economies
    Won't you trickle trickle trickle down to me

    Your trickle down societies
    Your trickle-down economies
    Your trickle-down philosophies
    Nothing trickle-trickles down to me
