Poppy by Edgar Broughton Band, Album: Edgar Broughton Band, 1971

I laid on a poppy
It laid on me
A lot of thinking
And did it all for free
I thought of you…..
I thought of you

I wanted to swim in the river
But I saw what they had done
All the fish are dying in there
and we ain’t got no sun

I thought of you…..
I thought of you

I wandered in a meadow
All that rubbish there
Look at them with the plastic picnic
Talking ‘bout the length of my hair

I laid on a poppy
It laid on me
A lot of thinking
And did it all for free
I thought of you…..
I thought of you

I wanted to swim in the river
But I saw what they had done
All the fish are dying in there
And we ain’t got no sun

I thought of you…..
I thought of you

I’m gonna take a walk in the country
Take a look at that big blue sky
Take a breath of that clean spring air
Before they say die

I thought of you…..
I thought of you

Here there is also a disapointing notice towards the disapearing Nature, polluted rivers, forests with plastic rubbish by visitors who prefer not to critisize their waste-producing way of life, but the long hairs of the true nature's childred, the hippies.

You can hear some songs from this band in you tube and in my space
