lyrics
EVOLVED WORLD
Look at you! Slumped on your armchair
You “man” watch and let me slog, being helpless
How do you see me? As your slave?
I ain’t your mother bordering you baby?
It’s distressing!
Back at work, here I go again
Being considered for something else than what I am
What do men think? I know it well
Girls try, but never go past them
It’s distressing!
In this evolved world, women are too much left out
In this evolved world, the word parity’s been worn out
But in this evolved world, women are yet the key
To a life well fulfilled
Look at me! Okay, I’m a pretty girl,
But can’t you see what stands beyond appearances?
Do you know what I mean? I think you know what I mean
It's time now to break the silence
It is pressing!
In this evolved world, women are too much left out
In this evolved world, the word parity’s been worn out
But in this evolved world, women are yet the key
To a life well fulfilled
Everyone, since day one
Relies on the woman they call mum
But once grown
Mum goes down
In this evolved world, women are too much left out
In this evolved world, the word parity’s been worn out
But in this evolved world, women are yet the key
To a life well fulfilled
(X 2)
To a life well fulfilled

TOUCH OF GROOVE, the self titled first album from TOG, is a soul music project inspired by Afro-American music of the
sixties. The recording makes us revive the thrill of the Stax and Atlantic classics with a touch of modernity. The music is enhanced with lyrics dealing with timeless subjects such as gender relations, the oppression of political leaders or the issues from the pandemic....more
