The Bluebird and the Fly
Nature makes its own decisionsIt decides who lives or diesLike the hunger of a common bluebirdWho's driven by her baby's cries Now even the housefly will do the sameDriven by its hunger, they seekTrying its best to avoid its doomBy way of the bluebird's beak Somewhere soon their paths will crossAnd the strong will devour the weakNature's design, cannot be brokenAnd the housefly's future looks bleak Then out of the sky, lightning strikesAs the bluebird falls to the groundA naked power line decides her fateAnd the housefly's feast, is found It's funny to see how nature worksPondering while wondering whyThings are nothing like they appearLike the bluebird and the fly
