Welcome back, FAWMers. I have for you a song about a sad bird.

Dave the Crow fell and broke his wing When a bigger crow pushed him off the swings He didn't seem to feel bad or anything And Dave didn't understand

And while he had that broken bone Mama crow said, "Dave, stay at home" Cuz the world is darker than you'll ever know But I'll take care of you

The darkness spreads far and wide And if you don't hold tight to yourself it'll eat you up alive So forgive and forget, Dave Forgive and forget

But ever since that fateful day Dave had a feeling that he couldn't shake When a wrong is done someone should pay And he knew what he must do

So Dave the Crow got a law degree Spent every day in the library And applied himself so diligently That he got Summa Coom Laude

But every time Dave flew The pain in his wing just grew and grew And something on the wind Brought him back to the crow on the swing

The darkness spreads far and wide And if you don't hold tight to yourself it'll eat you up alive So forgive and forget, Dave Forgive and forget

Dave the Crow tried a murder case But the details of the time and place And the familiar look on the murderer's face Stirred something deep inside

It was the trial of the century And when the murderer got off scot-free Dave the Crow took his law degree And he threw it in the trash

Cuz Dave did not forgive And Dave does not forget a face So one dark night while the whippoorwill sings He takes matters into his own wings

And from his cell in the county jail Serving a lifetime sentence without bail A little bird sits with all his failures And he's been heard to sing

"The darkness spreads far and wide And if you don't hold tight to yourself it'll eat you up alive So forgive and forget Dave Forgive and forget"
