the ballad of a crystal man - donovan leitch lyrics

from the alb-m 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 gl-sses 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
d-mn 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.
