From the album fairytale 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. ♪ On the quilted battlefields of soldiers dazzling made of toy tin ♪ The big bomb like a child's hand could sweep them dead just so to win. ♪ 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 ♪ Thinking not of beauty that spreads like morning sun-glow. ♪ Seagull I don't want your wings, I don't want your freedom in a lie. ♪ I pray your dreams of vivid screams of children dying slowly
And as you polish up your guns your real self be reflecting. ♪ For 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. ♪ For seagull I don't want your wings, I don't want your freedom in a lie.
