Blue Oyster Cult~ Leather Golden Age I came here willingly/ And I will go down valiantly/ We made a vow To give it all we had to give/ We made a vow To die as we had lived/ They flew the colors they began to fight They flailed at each other like bugs at a light Bodies and bikes beyond repair/ Smell of oil and gas in the air Then the wind whipped the desert with a giant hand And the humans and the Harleys caught the shifting sand/ The old ranger weathered the storm And he topped the rise by the middle of morn/ He saw rippled dunes Calm and surreal And the glint of a solitary shaft of chromium steel/ Golden Age Golden Age Golden Age Golden Age Golden Age Golden Age Golden Age
