From After The Gold Rush (1970)
---------------------------------------------
AFTER THE GOLD RUSH

Well, I dreamed I saw the knights
In armor coming,
Saying something about a queen.
There were peasants singing and
Drummers drumming
And the archer split the tree.
There was a fanfare blowing
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 the full moon in my eyes.
I was hoping for replacement
When the sun burst thru 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 a
Friend had said
I was hoping it was a lie.

Well, I dreamed I saw the silver
Space ships flying
In the yellow haze of the sun,
There were children crying
And colors flying
All around the chosen ones.
All in a dream, all in a dream
The loading had 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.

  • Great song. Played this album until it was nothing but snap, crackle, and pop when I was 17. It is an amazing song that manages to talk about the middle ages, the foolishness of war, the destruction of the environment, UFOs, and a warning for the future - all in less than 4 minutes. Amazing songwriting. Thanks Neil - wish you all the best!

  • I'm a zombie & I still love this!

    ...and brains.

see all
