After the Goldrush

Well, I dreamed I saw the knights in armour coming
Saying something about a queen
There were peasants singin'
And drummers drumming
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 lyin' in a burned out basement
With the full moon in my eyes
I was hoping for replacement
When the sun burst through the sky
There was a band playin' 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 a friend had said
I was hoping it was a lie

Well, I dreamed I saw the silver spaceships flyin'
In the yellow haze of the sun
There were children cryin' and colours
Flyin' all around the chosen ones
All in a dream, all in a dream
The loading has begun
They were flying Mother Nature's silver seed
To a new home in the sun
Flying Mother Nature's silver seed
To a new home
