lyrics

in the idyllic time
we were safe
from any harm
on the idiot farm
magic
will I hear the sound?
fairy wood
alfalfa king
I hear them!
in the rows they whistle
she moves my eye
to see what this was
I never was happier to be alive

glories past
transfers white
candy in hand
we are asking nice
tractors in the barns
misfits have their charms
we dreamed of love
innocent
naïve
I never was happier to be alive

in the idyllic time
we waste
never knowing how fast we lose the taste
our eyes misplace the changes that race
I still hear the strange
the silliness
strange poverty affluence buys
she looked back into his eyes
and never was happier to be alive

the glories past
the transfers white
the record spins
the sound is right
in my basement when the summer comes
how could we get anything done?
but I never was happier to be alive...
