abbey lincoln - caged bird lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
la la la la la
oh, oh woah
mm mm mm mm, mm mm
la la la la la
la la la la la
la la la la la la

[verse 1]
the birds who live in cages never spread their wings
they sit with ruffled feathers on the tiny swings
and speculate birdseed and while away the day
and tuck their heads in feathers of a colorful array

[chorus]
i know why the caged bird sings a sweet and soulful song
i know why the caged bird sings when everything seems wrong
i know why the caged bird sings and flaps its tethered wings
birds were made to fly away
birds were made to sing

[post+chorus]
la la la la la
la la la la la
la la la la la
la la la la la la la, la la la la
[verse 2]
the birds who live in cages feel the morning sun
shining through the window where the captor lives by gun
and it stretches forth its body and it warbles for the day
and looks around from side to side and listens for the way

[chorus]
i know why the caged bird sings a sweet and soulful song
yes, i know why the caged bird sings when everything
everything seems wrong
i know why the caged bird sings and flaps its tethered wings
birds were made to fly away, fly away
birds were made to:

[outro]
la la la la la
la la la la la
la, ah
la la la la la
la la la la la
la la la la la
la la, la la la
