Lyrics for Ballad Of A Crystal Man Version I by Donovan:
| | | Artist: | Donovan |
| | Album: | Best Of Donovan Ii | | Track: | Ballad Of A Crystal Man Version I | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 66 | | | | Lyrics: | Walk along and talk along and live your lives quite freely
But leave our children with their
toys of peppermint and candy.
For seagull I don't want your wings,
I don't want your
freedom in a lie.
Your thoughts they are of harlequin, your speeches of
quicksilver.
I read your faces like a poem, kaleidoscope of hate words.
For seagull I
don't want your wings,
I don't want your freedom in a lie.
As you fill your glasses
with the wine of murdered Negroes
Think you not of beauty that spreads like morning
sun-glow.
For seagull I don't want your wings,
I don't want your freedom in a
lie.
On the quilted battlefield of soldiers dazzling made of toy tin
The big bomb
like a child's hand could sweep them dead just so to win.
Seagull I don't want your
wings,
I don't want your freedom in a lie.
Vietnam, your latest game, you're playing
with your blackest Queen
Damn your souls and curse your grins, I stand here with a fading
dream.
Seagull I don't want your wings,
I don't want your freedom in a lie | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
