"No Freedom" lyrics - CARLY SIMON

CARLY SIMON
"No Freedom"

Hey now
Momma used to say
What's the use in spoiling a perfect day
Does a flower compromise it's beauty
Wondering if it's gonna rain
Hey now
You might have the power
People bowing down
They give you all those special things
Just because you're world renowned
Oh no

[Chorus:]
There ain't no freedom
There ain't no freedom
There ain't no freedom
When you've got a worryin' mind

Hey now
You might be sailing
On a perfect sea
Water is lapis lazuli and 85 degrees

[Chorus 2x]

You might be traveling
At the speed of sound
As light as a feather
As high as the sky
Never looking down

Hey now
Momma used to say
What's the use in spoiling a perfect day
Does a flower compromise it's glory
Wondering if it's gonna rain
Hey now
You might have a hit
On the radio
Success might scoop you up
And never let you go
(Never let you go)

[Chorus]
