Midnight Oil
"Golden Age"
.
All the screens are filled with heroes and losers .
But the sky's still filled with stars .
This junky palace might be on fire .
Til the winners lose desire .
Let it go Let it go .
[chorus] .
So tell me what you see (tell me what you see) .
Tell me what you hear (tell me what you hear) .
And if it's the same as me 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 .
[chorus] .
I can see a purple patch of jacaranda .
Framed in eucalypt from this wooden floored verandah .
Heading past the watermark .
Heading for the hills .
Heading for the edge of time .
Heading for the thrills of the golden age .
[chorus] .
Now everybody is talking 'bout the golden age .
