Aurora Borealis
The icy sky at night
Paddles cut the water
In a long and hurried
flight
>From the white man to the fields of green
And the homeland we've never seen
They killed us in our teepees
And they cut our women down
They might have left some
babies
Cryin' on the ground
But the firesticks and the wagons come
And the night
falls on the settin' sun
They massacred the buffalo
Kitty-corner from the
bank
Taxis run across my feet
And my eyes have turned to blanks
In my little box at
the top of the stairs
With my Indian rug and a pipe to share
I wish I was a
trapper
I would give a thousand pelts
To sleep with Pocahontas
And find out how she
felt
In the mornin' on the fields of green
In the homeland we've never seen
And maybe Marlon Brando
Will be there by the fire
We'll sit and talk about
Hollywood
And the good things there for hire
Like the Astrodome and the first
teepee
Marlon Brando, Pocahontas and me
Marlon Brando, Pocahontas and me
