I'm Free
Violent Femmes, The
Why Do Birds Sing? (1991)

I'm free and I'm happy I am free from your hatred
I've parted from the part that I participated in
So I'm free it was easy I know nothing of your hatred
I've know and shone the light and the darkness abated
So I'm free run skip jump play my little boy is happy
Look he's smiling because he knows no fear..hear...
My mommy is calling me and I'm running thru the fields
Because I'm free
Every day in every way I'm getting better and better
And better and better and better and better etc
Because there is no fear
Here why I can't tell you now
Cause I'm runnin' through the wood and
I just jumped a little bit higher
Cause I'm free and that's the way he created me to be
I have turned from your hatred I turned on the light
And there was nothing there that waited to get me
This ain't a song about that
This is a song about this
