Songtexte The Ballad of a Crystal Man (Universal Soldier EP Version) - Donovan
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
As
you
fill
your
glasses
with
the
wine
of
murdered
negroes
Thinking
not
of
beauty
that
spreads
like
morning
sun-glow
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
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
Damn
your
souls
and
curse
your
grins,
I
stand
here
with
a
fading
dream
Seagull,
I
don't
want
your
wings
I
don't
want
your
freedom
in
a
lie
