After The Gold Rush

After The Gold Rush
Well, I dreamed I saw the knights in armour comin',
Sayin somethin' about a queen
There were peasants singin' and drummers drummin',
And the archer split the tree
There was a fanfare blowin' to the sun,
There was floating on the breeze
Look at Mother Nature on the run,
In the Nineteen-Seven ties
Look at Mother Nature on the run,in the Nineteen-Seventies
I was lying in a burned out basement, with a full moon in my eye
I was hoping for replacement, when the sun burst through the sky
There was band playing in my head,and I felt like getting high
I was thinking about what a friend had said I was hoping it was
a lie
Thinking about what friend had said, I was hoping it was a lie
Well I dreamed I saw the silver spaceship lyin' in the yellow
haze of the sun
There were children crying and colours flying all a round t
he chosen one
All in a dream, all in a dream the loading had begun
Flying mother nature's silver seed to a new home in the sun
Flying mother nature's silver seed to a new home
