The fool said, I sing to the forests
The fool said, I sing to the trees
The fool said, I sing to the oceans
The fool said, I sing to the sea
The fool sang of social injustice
The fool sang of the poor -
And the hungry and the wronged
The govenment said, We will kill you
If you dont stop singing these songs
So they beat the fool
Broke him on the wheel
And the torturer said
Tell me how does it feel
And the fool said, look out at the people
Singing outside the palace door
And the fool said, listen to them singing
Now that the fool can sing no more
The fool said, I sing to the trees
The fool said, I sing to the oceans
The fool said, I sing to the sea
The fool sang of social injustice
The fool sang of the poor -
And the hungry and the wronged
The govenment said, We will kill you
If you dont stop singing these songs
So they beat the fool
Broke him on the wheel
And the torturer said
Tell me how does it feel
And the fool said, look out at the people
Singing outside the palace door
And the fool said, listen to them singing
Now that the fool can sing no more
