Have you been to the carnival
I would like to see you
There's a whole lot of people there
Who would like to be you
With the white unicorn, across her shoulder
Makes you think that she might of been
Someone who's older, ahh yeah

Oh, its on your eyes,
With a drink from her wine.
But we drank for the seventh time,
Now we live in another time
We could live together

She lives on the borderline, that they call hazel
And the tent that she lives in,has the name of her lover,
As she lays down to rest, she dreamt of another
Of a time when she once had

Oh, oh, its on your eyes,
With a drink from her wine.
But we drank for the seventh time,
Now we live in another time
We could live together

Oh, oh, its on your eyes,
With a drink from her wine.
But we drank for the seventh time,
Now we live in another time
We could live together
We could live together

    General Comment:A clear reference throughout the whole song is that carnival in Europe (She lives on the borderline, that they call Hazy)

    That's actually a street in the festival. It's called the Burning Man as others have pointed out.

    But the fact that they bring this into the song makes its meaning more deeper for its a festive tone isn't made known musically but lyrically.

    It's a song about getting drunk and really taking the trip to the great beyond lol. Obviously a Stoner Jam but ah what can you say, good song anyway.

    General Comment:Wolfmother are overated, like em all you want but they ain't one of the greatest thats not the poit of their music they are a lot of fun tho and do put on one hell of a live show. Anyway I thought a whiteunicorn was a symbol of virginity and innocence.

    General Comment:Or maybe not, i guess you could be right. As long as you accept Wolfmother as one of the greatest than it's all good. WOLFIE!
