(Neil Young)

Well, I dreamed I saw the knights in armor coming
Saying something about a king
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 twenty-first century.
Look at mother nature on the run
In the twenty-first century.

I was lying 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 playing in my head
And I felt like I could cry
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.

--- Instrumental ---

Well, I dreamed I saw the silver spaceships flyin'
In the yellow haze of the sun
There was laughing, crying and colors flyin'
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
They were flying mother nature's silver seed to a new home...
