I've seen visions in the void flashing on my neon screen
I've seen a million shining tears falling on my time machine
Can I stop the king from dying with my time machine?
Now I see the arrow flying will he hear my scream (nooooooo!)

Don't go down to hastings harold, stay in town tonight!
Don't go down to hastings harold, stay in town tonight!

Life is like knots in the poem-foam breeze
Bird in the blue and wind in the trees
The gravy cheeks of the hillbilly boys
The burning sun and the rainfall noise

I have seen all future trouble there's no end in sight
Don't go down to hastings harold stay in town tonight!

I've seen armies on the ocean floor and fighters in the sky
I've seen thorns in the lions paw and arrows in the eye
And if the king should look my way, I'll be calling out my fear
But will he ever hear my warning through the lonely years?

Don't go down to hastings harold, stay in town tonight!
Don't go down to hastings harold, stay in town tonight!

Life is like prints in the dust of time, deep in the blue where the darkness shines
The gravy cheeks of the hillbilly boys, the burning sun and the rainfall noise
I have seen all future trouble there's no end in sight
Don't go down to hastings harold stay in town tonight!

Time machine!

In the spaces whispers fall and faces young grow old
And the distant thunder calls as the night turns cold.

Don't go down to hastings harold, stay in town tonight!
Don't go down to hastings harold, stay in town tonight!
Don't go!
