Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark

Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD) are a British New Wave group formed in 1978, whose founding members, Andy McCluskey (vocals, bass guitar) and Paul Humphreys (keyboards, vocals), are originally from the Wirral Peninsula, England. The band rose to fame with their fourth single "Enola Gay", which became a major hit throughout Europe in 1980, and achieved worldwide popularity the following year with their third album Architecture & Morality.

The Native Daughters of the Golden West
In ecstasy they cry to know
If their parents love will let them go
Their mother's pride, their fathers joy
They thank the stars that they're not boys
The native daughters of the golden west
Their beauty is priceless, you'll never pass their test
As children do they stayed at home
Waiting for the day when they were grown
The future seemed so far away
But every night they'd kneel and pray
But all in all they did their best
And one by one they left the nest
Across the globe they searched for love
And put their faith in their God above
The native daughters of the golden west
They're made of light, We never would have guessed
So by and by their dreams came true
They fell in love with boys they knew
Their children grew fed from the breast
Of The Native Daughters of the Golden West
The Native Daughters of the Golden West
They talk all day, but we were not impressed
The Native Daughters of the Golden West
They're sisters of mercy, they'll grant your last request
