TIE-DYED DREAMS OF YESTERDAY
Love child, flower child
Brothers and cousins went to war
Vietnam was not our holy war
What were we fighting for?
Woodstock and Altamont
Music carried our freedom
It gave us strength and restlessness
Consciousness began to lead us
Tye-dyed dreams of yesterday
Penetrate the depths of my mind
We laughed and we sang and we danced
In a psychedelic innocence
Psychedelic innocence
Wake up from toxic dreams
Don’t be such a lamb
The power structure does not rule
Your life’s in your own hands
Tie-dyed dreams of yesterday
Penetrate the depths of my mind
We laughed and we sang and we danced
In a psychedelic innocence
Psychedelic innocence
Our children are on the verge
Of becoming young adults
What do we do and what do we say
‘bout our tie-dyed dreams of yesterday
We laughed and we sang and we danced
In a psychedelic innocence
Psychedelic innocence
In a psychedelic innocence
Psychedelic innocence
