Barenaked Ladies ~ Great Provider


Words by Steven Page & Ed Robertson Music by Jim Creeggan, Steven Page & Ed Robertson You and I have been through this before I owe you my whole life, nothing more I never said that I liked you the most You're my father, I'm your son, who's the Holy Ghost? Where does the time go when it's not around here? Here we stand at the edge of the drive I'm just waiting for my ride to arrive I wait to see if you've any last words We pulled away, I called your name, I don't think you heard Where does the time go when it's not around here? I don't know Where does the time go when it's not around here? You and I never shared all that much When I leave, I'll be all right, I'll keep in touch As your road narrows, so mine grows wider As I leave I turn and wave to the Great Provider Where does the time go when it's not around here? I don't know Where does the time go when it's not around here? more free lyrics

Words by Steven Page & Ed Robertson
Music by Jim Creeggan, Steven Page & Ed Robertson

You and I have been through this before
I owe you my whole life, nothing more
I never said that I liked you the most
You're my father, I'm your son, who's the Holy Ghost?
Where does the time go when it's not around here?
Here we stand at the edge of the drive
I'm just waiting for my ride to arrive
I wait to see if you've any last words
We pulled away, I called your name, I don't think you heard

Where does the time go when it's not around here?
I don't know
Where does the time go when it's not around here?

You and I never shared all that much
When I leave, I'll be all right, I'll keep in touch
As your road narrows, so mine grows wider
As I leave I turn and wave to the Great Provider

Where does the time go when it's not around here?
I don't know
Where does the time go when it's not around here?

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
