Who Spoke

Who spoke about the trees, Who spoke of liberty? Who spoke about bees When shackles kept men in misery? Nothing’s sweet in prison, Nothing’s sweet outside You have lost sense of direction When a good friend is still inside. Man is tied to life All labour and clock routine Facing trials, tests and strife No comfort in between. Best to do is be happy, Whistle it all away, Break the shackles, make it snappy You’ll enjoy everyday.
