Be Free from DOOMSCRAWLING by Marcus Gibbon

I want to be free, be free
As free a little bird as I can be
High up in the branches of a weeping willow tree
Where no one will ever shoot me down

The eye of the goat ever sees, ever sees
The ferret slips on through the reeds
While great scaly beasts lay out in the sun
For all the world there to see

I want to be free, be free
As free a little bird as I can be
High up in the branches of a weeping willow tree
Where no one will ever shoot me down

Your beautiful fur is a coat, a coat
Your delicate plumes are a fan
Your swift strong leg is only a snack
Is that what you want to be

I want to be free, be free
As free a little bird as I can be
High in the branches of a weeping willow tree
Where no one will ever shoot me down

On the ground, on the ground
I’ll never build my nest on the ground
High up in the branches of a weeping willow tree
Never ever to be found
