lyrics

Such a fine and sunny day, and I must go.
Doesn’t matter anyway, this I now know. The blue
skies are free to take me cause I think I prefer to
be free. The government, she’s scaring me, and I
must leave. She got too big for the shoes she
picked and forgot the powers that be. Another
prize of man’s design that will lead
to his demise every time.
Such a fine and sunny day, and I must be gone.
Turning my back on a life that’s gray,
yes, it’s time for me to move on.
Remember me as they’d have me be:
another fruit to
add to their hanging tree.
