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 colours 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
