The Arapaho (in French: Arapahos, Gens de Vache) are a tribe of Native Americans historically living on the eastern plains of Colorado and Wyoming. They were close allies of the Cheyenne tribe and loosely aligned with the Sioux. Arapaho is an Algonquian language closely related to Gros Ventre, whose people are seen as an early offshoot of the Arapaho. Blackfoot and Cheyenne are the other Algonquian-speakers on the Plains, but their languages are quite different from Arapaho. By the 1850s, Arapaho bands had coalesced into two tribes: the Northern Arapaho and Southern Arapaho.
Since 1878 the Northern Arapaho Nation has lived with the Eastern Shoshone on the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming. This is the seventh-largest reservation in the United States. The Southern Arapaho Tribe live with the Southern Cheyenne in Oklahoma. Together their members are enrolled as a federally recognized tribe, the Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes.
The Plains Indians are the Indigenous peoples who live on the plains and rolling hills of the Great Plains of North America. Their equestrian culture and resistance to domination by Canada and the United States have made the Plains Indians an archetype in literature and art for American Indians everywhere. Plains Indians are usually divided into two broad classifications which overlap to some degree. The first group were fully nomadic during the 16th to 19th centuries, following the vast herds of buffalo, although some tribes occasionally engaged in agriculture; growing tobacco and corn primarily. These include the Blackfoot, Arapaho, Assiniboine, Cheyenne, Comanche, Crow, Gros Ventre, Kiowa, Lakota, Lipan, Plains Apache (or Kiowa Apache), Plains Cree, Plains Ojibwe, Sarsi, Nakoda (Stoney), and Tonkawa.
The second group of Plains Indians includes the aboriginal peoples of the Great Plains, as well as the Prairie Indians who come from as far east the Mississippi River. These tribes were semi-sedentary, and, in addition to hunting buffalo, they lived in villages, raised crops, and actively traded with other tribes. These include the Arikara, Hidatsa, Iowa, Kaw (or Kansa), Kitsai, Mandan, Missouria, Omaha, Osage, Otoe, Pawnee, Ponca, Quapaw, Santee, Wichita, and Yankton Dakota.

I saw a foreign angel
She brushed across my dream
She didn't stay to kiss me
She's the prettiest girl I've ever seen
And I wonder why she called me
Is it 'cause I'm old and weak?
And I wonder if it's time to die
To fold my wings and go to sleep
So, I see you on a rainbow in the sky
I see you reach down and touch the sky
I see you on a rainbow in the sky
I see you my beautiful butterfly
I've always been a wild man
But you don't seem to care
Your rainbow wings envelope me
And carry me through the open air
And now my friends are cryin...
We're brothers don't you see
There's more out there in rainbow land
For a butterfly and me
So, I see you on a rainbow in the sky
I see you reach down and touch the sky
I see you on a rainbow in the sky
I see you my beautiful butterfly
(butterfly, butterfly)
I see you on a rainbow in the sky
I see you reach down and touch the sky
I see you on a rainbow in the sky
I see you my beautiful butterfly
I see you on a rainbow in the sky
I see you reach down and touch the sky
I see you on a rainbow in the sky
I see you my beautiful butterfly
My beautiful butterfly
My butterfly
We've got some problems I know we need to solve
With faith and education there will be some resolve
I know that we are paying for what our fathers have done
So dance to the flame of freedom
In the eyes of everyone
But it's all for nothing
If you know what I mean
If we don't all gather round
Our generation
With destination
So we've all been told now to try and tow the line
How the hell dowe do that unless we're working all the time
We've got to stop the crime now so we can have tomorrow
So the rainbow nation can dance together
So a good life wil follow
But it's all for nothing
If you know what I mean
If we don't all gather round
Our generation
Why the trees must fall
Another bit of junk mail through the wall
Why the trees must always fall
So your rave trainers come boxed and all
So why the treesmust fall
Because man, he wants it all, takes it all, needs it all
Hey, that tree's called Belinda
Leave her alone
She's the tallest girl in the world
Hey, that redwood's called Belinda
Leave her alone
Because trees are the lungs of the world
So why the trees must always fall
Just to pack an idol, that's all
So why the treesmust fall
Because man, he wants it all, takes it all, needs it all
Hey, that tree's called Belinda
Leave her alone
She's the tallest girl in the world
Hey, that redwood's called Belinda
Leave her alone
Because trees are the lungs of the world
So why trees must always fall
So we can read about the woe of it all
So why the trees must fall
Because man, he wants it all, takes it all, needs it all
Hey, that tree's called Belinda
Leave her alone
She's the tallest girl in the world
Hey, that redwood's called Belinda
Leave her alone
Crystal blue reflects from the sky
She'll surface once more now destined to die
Sweat and diesel hunting her down
Placing baby at the lost and found
Have you seen my mother?
Have you seen my mother?
Crystal blue now boils with blood
Flesh and steel have just become one
We must not murder, man must not win
The winches are smoking
To harvest this sin
Have you seen my mother?
Have you seen my mother?
In foreign lands she's now eaten raw
Life is now booming back on the shore
Are we civilized man who stands on the moon
Or do we destroy and seal our own doom
Have you seen my mother?
In the still of the night or day
There's a thumping sound on the highway
What looked like a river was a road
With headlights for eyes and bumpers for toes
Bozo cruises at full speed ahead
Mr Jack Rabbit is seconds from dead
Blinded by a flash from heaven
Smashed by heavy meatal from hell
Get a load of this
It might not be your kind of scene
At the Road Kill Cafe
They do not serve novelle cuisine
If you like variety
Come and have a seat with me
At the Road Kill Cafe
You won't find a cup of tea
Fur-lined burgers for the fur burger crew
Crunchie munchies on bumpers to chew
The Road Kill menu with body and soul
Always come wholesale but not always whole
Get a load of this
It might not be your kind of scene
At the Road Kill Cafe
They do not serve novelle cuisine
If you like variety
Come and have a seat with me
At the Road Kill Cafe
You won't be paying V.A.T.
Get a load of this
It might not be your kind of scene
At the Road Kill Cafe
They do not serve novelle cuisine
If you like variety
Come and have a seat with me
At the Road Kill Cafe
I think aloud tonight
Tomorrow's another day I know
Forgotten thoughts were always there
I had nowhere to go
And when I see you now
I think about the times we swam to shore
Your presance haunts me now
I lose myself more and more
I'll give you everything if you want me to
I'll give my life to you my girl
If you love me too
And that's for sure
Washed away through time
We threw promise to the wind
Love and music wasn't meant to ever end
And when I look back now
I laugh at the things we used to say
The show is over now
The stars will all fade away
I'll give you everything if you want me to
I'll give my life to you my girl
If you love me too
And that's for sure
Hypnotised, naive, so reckless
A movie every day
Just like a butterfly
Should I fold or head towards the sky
The shining face of now
Don't turn away
It might just disappear
Enjoy those eyes tonight
Don't wonder why she's here
I'll give you everything if you want me to
I'll give my life to you my girl
If you love me too
You stood all wraped up in the corner
False smile you looked me in the eye
You feel you're half a mile from eden
Inside you're spinning around
You dream of deep blue seas and thunder
One tear the shadows hide your fear
You feel you're half a mile from heaven
Inside you're spinning around
You had the life, you had the feel
You had the laugh, you had the thrill
You had the chance, his turn to deal
Now you know how it feels
Time crawls for him to disappear
You pray you like to feel alive
I know you're half a mile from nowhere
Inside you're spinning around=20
You had the life, you had the feel
You had the laugh, you had the thrill
You had the chance, his turn to deal
Had a brother
Drove a boot-filled Cadillac
Left home at fourteen
Said mom I'll never come back
Started doin' horse
Felt like a bird on a wing
A junkie in the waiting
To die
Driving a spitfire
Top down looking for gas
Parameter, Kingcross, uptown
He never came back
Started doin' horse
Felt like a bird on a wing
A junkie in the waiting
To die
Niel Young said
Needle and the damage done
I say
Why can't we all just live as one
Started doin' horse
Felt like a bird on a wing
A junkie in the waiting
I pace the sky looking for it
I feal frustrated, some say I'm dead
Blue sky above a hole in the clouds
We all want the same thing never look down
Red sun above you can you feel the flame
The heat is within now I feel alive
I feel the river running through me
And I knew it all along
The rivers always purer upstream
Like eternal paradise
The runway clear and the weather is fine
So said the healer a friend of mine
I'm looking for elvis, my search has begun
What's waiting for me on the other side
Glitter cowboys selling the hour
If you lost your faith
You can have mine
You see my friend
I've seen it working in time
It's a beautiful thing
That will always come through
So lets swirl the wine
And watch those dreams come true
Watching all those colours
Cutting through the glass
I'm feeling lonely
Burning in my heart
Do you feel like a shadow
That life steps over
Sweet, soft and deadly
The purest colour=20
That this life will offer
So don't trash yourself
Someday you'll discover
Watching all those colours
Cutting through the glass
I'm feeling lonely
I saw a foreign angel
She brushed across my dream
She didn't stay to kiss me
Shes the prettiest girl Ive ever seen
And I wonder why she called me
Is it cause Im old and weak?
And I wonder if it's time to die
To fold my wings and go to sleep
So, I see you on a rainbow in the sky
I see you reach down and touch the sky
I see you on a rainbow in the sky
I see you my beautiful butterfly
Ive always been a wild man
But you don't seem to care
Your rainbow wings envelope me
And carry me through the open air
And now my friends are cryin
Were brothers don't you see
There's more out there in rainbow land
For a butterfly and me
So, I see you on a rainbow in the sky
I see you reach down and touch the sky
I see you on a rainbow in the sky
I see you my beautiful butterfly
(butterfly, butterfly)
I see you on a rainbow in the sky
I see you reach down and touch the sky
I see you on a rainbow in the sky
I see you my beautiful butterfly
I see you on a rainbow in the sky
I see you reach down and touch the sky
I see you on a rainbow in the sky
I see you my beautiful butterfly
My beautiful butterfly
My butterfly
I think I met a girl
Who likes to make me happy everyday
Then I bought a ring
To try and make her never go away
I bet there's half a million people
That feel the way I do
I don't have to drink a river now
Just to get on through
Then I lost a friend
A ruthless heart makes laughter slip away
I never took the time to think
About the senseless game we play
I bet there's half a million people
That feel the way I do
I don't have to drink a river now
Just to get on through
Then I lost the plot
And went and chased my sweetheart far away
Now I've realised
Life is not an easy game to play
I bet there's half a million people
That feel the way I do
I don't have to drink a river now
Went down fascination street the other day
Sick of waiting for the sun to shine on me
Smelt the incense and parted the beads
She looked up and held her hand out to me
She didn't look into the clear glass world
She didn't try to explain the lines on my palm
There's nothing I can say
That you don't already know
Just sing yor song aztec rain
And try to make your way home
You got to bleed that whisky heart
You got to cry yourself to sleep
You got to watch your lucid world
Blow away beneath your feet
She didn't look into the clear glass world
She didn't try to explain the lines
This is your song Gemini life
So beautiful and so sad
You got to bleed that whisky heart
You got to cry yourself to sleep
You got to watch your lucid world
