| The Crow In The Tree | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| I�ll be the first crow in the tree To admit that I�m vain, selfish, and ugly And I have the chains to prove it That I�m useful - when nothing is needed And never greedy - at least over money I�m not greedy I�ll be the last crow in the tree Freezing to death, but please let me be Such drama has been long in coming And I�ve been running - nothing follows I�ve been hollow - but not let you know I�m not empty But I�m still sick Just a little overwhelmed And still stuck in my nest A baby feeding on anyone�s breast I�m still black Lacking just enough color And still sore in my throat But the medicine is my own I�ll be the dead crow in the tree Of starvation and waiting for God to appear But I�m not foolish And I�m not stupid Just dead and gone with no more ugly songs |
