[Verse 1] Kids were sent from heaven inside to lead you to the future Wrap their eyes in blindfolds and still they’ll find their way Blind their lives with pills and lies and still they find their vision And soon they’ll leave you to your yesterday-ay [Chorus] And they’ll sing goodbye scars of Hitler And goodbye bankers’ trust Aquarius is shining and the sun is one of us And me I don’t wanna go to the moon I’m gonna leave that moon alone I just want to dance with the Rosebud Sioux this summer Yes yes yes [Verse 2] The media is saturated but the sweetgrass still grows tall And Jesse John Blackbear talks to God in Cleveland Ohio And Washington is joking but the Navajos are not And the Senecas just arrived in Arizona [Verse 3] I talked to seven congressmen their ears were filled with gold That their grandfathers had taken from the Black Hills But it really doesn’t matter ’cause their children’ll hear me well And they will dream the dream my Mother sends to them [Chorus] And they’ll sing bye-bye scars of Hitler And bye-bye bankers’ trust Aquarius is shining and the sun is one of us And me I don’t wanna go to the moon I’m gonna leave that moon alone I just want to dance with the Rosebud Sioux this summer Yes yes yes Wait for me brown-eyed man [Solo] [x6] [Chorus/Outro] And they’ll sing bye-bye scars of Hitler And bye-bye bankers’ trust Aquarius is shining and the sun is one of us And me I don’t wanna go to the moon I’m gonna leave that moon alone I just want to dance with the Rosebud Sioux this summer Yes yes yes Wait for me brown-eyed man Yes yes yes Wait for me brown-eyed man

La chanson évoque la force et la résilience des générations futures, en soulignant que même face aux défis du monde moderne, ces jeunes trouvent leur chemin. Ils sont présentés comme des leaders natifs, capables de transcender les mensonges et les plaisirs éphémères pour se tourner vers une vision d’avenir. Il y a une référence à des luttes historiques, comme les cicatrices laissées par la guerre et les effets de la finance, tout en célébrant la culture et les traditions des peuples autochtones. Le contexte semble s'ancrer dans une volonté de retrouver un lien avec la nature et les racines culturelles, opposé à l'aliénation que l'on peut ressentir face aux médias et aux institutions. La mélodie invite à un moment de danse et de connexion simple, suggérant une recherche de joie et d'authenticité dans une époque troublée.
