[B]
Walk along, talk along, and live your lives quite freely
But leave our children with their toys of peppermint and candy
[E] I don't want [B] your wings, I don't want [F#] your freedom [B] in a lie
Your thoughts, they are of harlequin, your speech is of quicksilver
I read your faces like a poem, kaleidoscope of hate words
[E] I don't [B] want your wings, I don't [F#] want your freedom [B] in a lie
you fill your glasses with the wine of murdered negro
Walk along, talk along, and live your lives quite freely
But leave our children with their toys of peppermint and candy
[E] I don't want [B] your wings, I don't want [F#] your freedom [B] in a lie
Your thoughts, they are of harlequin, your speech is of quicksilver
I read your faces like a poem, kaleidoscope of hate words
[E] I don't [B] want your wings, I don't [F#] want your freedom [B] in a lie
you fill your glasses with the wine of murdered negro
