After The Goldrush

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Well I dreamed I saw the knights in armor coming

Sayin' something about a queen

There where peasants singin' and drummers drummin'

And the archer split the tree

There was a fanfare blowin' to the sun

that was floating on the breeze

Look at Mother Nature on the run

in the nineteen seventies

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 a 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 flying

In the yellow haze of the sun

There were children crying and colors flying

All around the 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
