I am an eagle
Born into a family of mice
I keep picking out mice
And trying to teach them how to fly
But they can’t see their wings
And are afraid of jumping off the cliff
I guess I’ve been surrounded by mice
For so long as far as the eye can see
I’ve come to believe
There are no other eagles
or that eagles will not love me want me
