Bird In a Cage

its cruel to keep a bird in a cage I cant tell you how this fills with me with rage I watch you poor thing sit with your head down feeling unhappy, your face with a frown I know how you long to flap your wings and fly but all you can do is watch the traffic go by when I watch you, it makes me want to cry oh beautiful bird, all I can do is ask myself why I wish that I could take you back to where you belong where you could sit in a tree and hear the bird song where you could fly forever more and feel the wind in your feather instead my heart breaks, for this cage you can leave, never oh poor little sad bird, I so long to set you free all the beauty in the world I want you to see poor little bird please dont cry, I will sing you a song about the beautiful place, you really belong
