After the Gold Rush
Well, I dreamed I saw the knights in armor comingSayin' something about a queenThere were peasants singin' and drummers drummingAnd the archer split the treeThere was a fanfare blowin' to the sunThat floated on the breezeLook at mother nature on the runIn the nineteen seventiesLook at mother nature on the runIn the nineteen seventies
I was lyin' in a burned out basementWith a full moon in my eyesI was hopin' for a replacementWhen the sun burst through the skyThere was a band playin' in my headAnd I felt like getting highI was thinkin' about what a friend had said,I was hopin' it was a lieThinkin' about what a friend had said,I was hopin' it was a lie
Well, I dreamed I saw the silver spaceships flyingIn the yellow haze of the sunThere were children crying and colors flyingAll around the chosen onesAll in a dream, all in a dreamThe loading had begunFlyin' Mother nature's silver seedTo a new home in the sunFlyin' Mother nature's silver seedTo a new home.
