Auto Garden Blues
I had a dream
In the middle of the day
And now my waking dream
Won't go away
I watch the city
Swallow everywhere
Only shanty towns
Of despair
And these things I saw
Road culture
At the end of the line
City dwellin'
At the end of the line
Motherfuckin'
At the end of the line
These things I saw
And these things I find
I had a dream
In the middle of the day
And now my waking dream
Won't go away
The motorway services
Were the new cities
The poisonous air
Had wrecked our home
Gasoline
Rivers burnin'
Up the seas
And I saw my people
Dirty on their knees
I had a dream
In the middle of the day
And now my waking dream
Won't go away
Yeah
So I left the city
Just to breathe some air
Just to keep my old brain
From bustin'
Yeah, I left the city
Just to breathe some air
But out here in the fields
You know there's still just fields
Still fences and signs
Screaming keep off my land
No trespass
By order
By drunken disorder
More likely old frick
Your drunken development's
Makin' me sick
Your drunken development's
Makin' me yawn
I *** on your reason
Your rose is my thorn
I had a dream
In the middle of the day
And now my waking dream
Won't go away
So I walk, walk, walk
Right over that land
Yes, I walk
And yes, I keep on walkin'
I *** a rock from the ground
Yeah, this is no game
This I, I let my rock do the talkin'
Till a man drives up
In a four-by-four
Up to me all alone
On this lonely moor
And my rock says hello
To his keepin' jar
And my rock said bye-bye
To his bleedin' head
Well, I never saw
A dead man
But he looked dead
I had a dream
In the middle of the day
And now my waking dream
Won't go away
And they wonder
Why a man
Behave like this
Behave like he wanna feel
The last time
His hands
Well, I heard mama cry
In my deepest dreams
Mama told me to do it
This is not what it seems
There are more of us
To come
And there are more like me
A mess-up, mess-up
With nothin' to lose
It's a barbed wire fence
Which side to choose
And I can't shake the feelin'
As it's happened before
My life is a mess
Now they're turnin'
They oughta get we burnin'
And I can't shake the feelin'
As it's happened before
My love, they're turnin'
And oughta get we burnin'
Eeeah
Ow
Aghh
you
