Wow! Listen to this great new song by Allan Caswell of Sydney, Australia:
HOW DO YOU SLEEP AT NIGHT?
(Right-click/Save Target As)

The well-turned lyrics of Allan Caswell and co-author Al Craig were inspired by certain unnamed world leaders. My favorite line:
"What if what if Jesus loves them too and helps them to stand up to you?"
I met Allan years ago while a summer intern in Hollywood for the owners of Lennon/ McCartney's songs. He has won so many Australian music awards (try googling him) that I think they had to create a few more to keep it interesting.
His latest musical incarnation, ARC (Doug Ashdown, Ross Ryan and Allan Caswell), will soon be touring Oz, for those of you who are fortunate enough to be living down under.

Let the song motivate you to keep the Fire of Truth alive! —KaraEvery generation throws up leaders of your kind.
One-eyed fools who rule by thinking most of us are blind.
Might is right, greed is good. That might work in Hollywood.
Couldn't you try something good next time?You charge the cost of freedom using other people's lives.
Keep plowing on regardless, thinking God is on your side.
But what if Jesus loves them too and helps them to stand up to you?
Couldn't you try something new next time?[CHORUS]
How do you sleep at night?
How do you sleep at night?
You got your doctors spinning it to prove that you were right.
How do you sleep at night?There's no room for conscience on your global balance sheet.
The Third World does the sweat and toil while you provide the heat.
You cut the cost to make the deal. Imagine how those children feel.
Couldn't you put Nikes on their feet?CHORUS
It may be true on Judgement Day the meek will get the Earth.
But after you get through with it, what'll it be worth?
