It won\'t last for long
So savour it now
A bird sings his song
With freedom to tell
Though I may be chained
To your narrow eyes
The liberty I\'ve gained
Is my greatest prize
As a bird has his cage
I have my plight
I\'m free from all rage
The sun is in sight
One day I\'ll soar
In a sky so blue
And open a door
For all to pass through
So laugh at me now
At my clipped wing
But just watch how
This bird will sing
