Generation

Lyrics

Kids were sent from heaven inside to lead you to the future
 Wrap their eyes in blindfolds and still they'll find their way
 Blind their lives with pills and lies and still they find their vision
 And soon they'll leave you to your yesterday
 And they'll sing goodbye scars of history
 And goodbye bankers' trust
 Aquarius is shining and the sun is one of us
 And me, I don't wanna go to the moon
 I'm gonna leave that moon alone
 I just want to dance with the Rosebud Sioux this summer
 Yes, yes, yes
 The media is saturated, but the sweetgrass still grows tall
 And Jesse John Blackbear talks to God in Cleveland, oh-hi-yo
 And Washington is joking, but the Navajos are not
 And Mother Earth just keeps on giving while we're ripening
 I talked to seven congressmen, their ears were filled with gold
 That their grandfathers had stolen out of the Black Hills
 And round and round the dance goes on
 And the children are Idle No More
 And they will dream the dream my Mother sends to them
 And they'll sing goodbye scars of history
 And goodbye bankers' trust
 Aquarius is shining and the sun is one of us
 And me, I don't wanna go to the moon
 I'm gonna leave that moon alone
 I just want to dance with the Rosebud Sioux this summer
 Yes, yes, yes
 Wait for me, you brown-eyed man
 And they'll sing goodbye scars of history
 And goodbye bankers' trust
 Aquarius is shining and the sun is one of us
 And me, I don't wanna go to the moon
 I'm gonna leave that moon alone
 I just want to dance with the Rosebud Sioux this summer
 Yes, yes, yes
 Wait for me, you brown-eyed man
 Yes, yes
 Wait for me, you brown-eyed man
