Letra de The Beat Of Black Wings - Joni Mitchell

I met a young soldier
He said his name was killer kyle
He was shakin� all over
Like a night-frightened child
This is his story
It�s a tough one for me to sing
Hard as the squawk and the flap
And the beat of--the beat of black wings
They gave me a gun, he said
They gave me a mission
For the power and the glory--
Propaganda--piss on �em
There�s a war zone inside me--
I can feel things exploding--
I can�t even hear the fucking music playing
For the beat of--the beat of black wings.
He said, I never had nothin�--
Nothin� I could believe in
My girl killed our unborn child
Without even grievin�!
I put my hands on her belly

To feel the kid kickin�--damn!
She�d been to some clinic
Oh--the beat of black wings.
They want you--they need you--
They train you to kill--
To be a pin on some map--
Some vicarious thrill--
The old hate the young
That�s the whole heartless thing
The old pick the wars
We die in �em
To the beat of--the beat of black wings.
There�s a man drawing pictures
On the sidewalk with chalk
Just as fast as he draws �em
Rain come down and wash �em off
Keep the drinks comin� girl
�til I can�t feel anything
I�m just a chalk mark in a rainstorm
I�m just the beat of black wings
