Golden Age Songtext
von Midnight Oil

All the screens are filled with heroes and losers
But the sky′s still filled with stars
And this junky palace might be on fire
'Til the winners lose desire

Let it go, let it go

So tell me what you see
And tell me what you hear
And if it′s the same as me
It's the golden age, it's the golden age

Big brother tries to stitch and bend
But channel surfers find new friends
See freedom′s silhouette increase
It′s time to claim that sweet release

Let it go, let it go


Now tell me what you see
And tell me what you hear
And if it's same as me
It′s the golden age

Now tell me what you see
And tell me what you hear
And if it's the same as me
It′s the golden age, ya, it's the golden age
It′s the golden age

I can see a purple patch of jacaranda
Framed in eucalypt from this wooden floored veranda
Heading past the watermark, heading for the hills
Heading for the edge of time, heading for the thrills of the golden age

Now tell me what you see
And tell me what you hear
If it's the same as me, it's the golden age

Everybody′s talking about the golden age
Yeah, they keep on talking about the golden age
Everybody′s talking about the golden age
