They don’t know how
I feel inside
Through my smile
I cry

They don’t know
what their doing
to me
Keeping me from flying

That’s why I say that:

I know why the
caged bird sings
Only joy comes from song
She so rare and beautiful
To others
Why not just set her free

So she can
Fly,fly,fly
Spreading her wings
And her song

Let her
Fly, fly, fly
For the whole world to see

Mmmm hmmmmm

Hey, hey, oohh oohh

She’s like a caged bird
fly, fly, fly

Ooh, should’ve let her fly
Should’ve let her fly
Should’ve let her fly

Spread the wings
Spread the beauty.
