Julian Cope - Autogeddon Blues Lyrics
I had a dream in the middle of the dayAnd now my waking dream won't go awayI watched the city swallow everywhereOnly shantytowns of despairAnd these thing I saw;Roadculture at the end of the lineCitydwelling at the end of the lineMother*****ing at the end of the lineThese things I saw + these things are fineI had a dream I the middle of the dayAnd now my waking dream won't go away...Motorway services were the new citiesThe poisonous air had wrecked our homesGasoline rivers burning up the seasAnd I saw my people down on their kneesI had a ream in the middle of the dayAnd now my waking dream won't go away...So I left the city just to breathe some airJust to keep my old brain from bustingYeah, I left the city just to breathe some airBut out here in the fields...You know they're still just fields,Still fences + signs screaming; "Keep off my land No Trespass - By Order"By drunken disorder my likely, Old Prick,Your drunken Development's making me sickYour drunken Development's making me yawnI shit on your reasonYour rose is my ThornI had a dream in the middle of the dayAnd now my waking dream won't go away...So I walk walk walk right over the landYes, I walk + I keep on walkingI grab a rock from the ground, yeah,This is No gameDecide I'll let my rock do the talking"Till a man drives up in a 4x4Up to me all alone on this lonely moorAnd my rock says "hullo" this has gaping jawAnd my rock says "Bye-bye" to his bleeding head,Well, I Never saw a dead man but he looked deadI had a dream in the middle of the dayAnd my waking dream won't go away.And they wonder why a man behave like thisBehave like he wants to feel the land is hisBut I heard Mama crying in my deepest dreams,Mama Tooold me to do itThis is mot what it seemsThere are more of us a-Commin'There are more like meMessed up - Messed up with nothing to loseIt's a barbed wire fenceWhich side do you chose?And I can't shake the feeling this has happened beforeMy nightmare ReturningIn Auto'GEDDON we're burning (REPEAT
