We Lost Our Wings

Wild birds know when it’s time to fly
Seeking food, survival in the warmer climes
Don’t fret about the distance of the trip
Just take off and let her rip

We lost our wings along the way
We’ll never know what they know
We lost our wings along the way
We’ll never go like they go

Salmon school up and down the coast
Why they head up river heaven knows
Survive the Grizzly’s appetite
Somehow keep their kind alive

We lost our fins along the way
We’ll never know what they know
We lost our fins along the way
We’ll never go like they go

Monarchs know when it’s time to go
Head on down to Mexico
Gather tight and fly together
Millions strong for flowers and weather
