respectfully, i didn't get that from the song. This song is actually straight from a poem of R.L.Sharpe "A Bag Of Tools" it says that we have our own talents and how we use them is up to us. do we build something outstanding that will stand the test of time or do we complain and do nothing. even though our 'tools' may be different from our neighbors we should put concious effort into greatness. I'm paraphrasing but it's pretty much on point. I'd be interested to know what you think. |

We'll be builders for eternity Each is given a bag of tools A shapeless mass and the book of rules
Pretty outstanding take on life, huh? Can't believe, as much as I like this song, I'd never really LISTENED to the message.

Bought "Night Food" in a 2nd hand shop returning from a 3 month stint in a central Queensland coal mine in about '83. My ears were clogged with coal dust and infected from it so I was virtually deaf. Had them unblocked when I returned home , then rushed home to put on the Heptones album. Realized I'd stumbled upon a gem and that there was more to reggae than Bob Marley.

I've heard this played on RP before . . . and it has grown on me. Overall a nice tune. Reminds me of the days when driving in the car listening to tunes with friends in NW PA . . . good times.
