Nina Simone
Fodder in Her Wings
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
A bird fell to Earth
Reincarnated from her birth
She had a fodder in her brain
Dust inside her wings
She flitted here and there
The United States, everywhere
With fodder in her wings
And dust inside her brain
Oh, how sad
Oh, how sad
Oh, how sad
[Verse 2]
She watched the people, how they lived
They had forgotten how to give
They had fodder in their brains
Dust inside their wings
She watched them how they tried to live
They had forgotten how to give
They had fodder in their wing
And dust inside their brain
Hell, they heed
Hell, they heed
Hell, they heed
