Strange Fruit |
| Southern trees bear a strange, strange fruit, |
| Blood on the leaves and blood at the root, |
| Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze, |
| Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees. |
| Pastoral scenes of the gallant South, |
| The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth, |
| Scent of magnolia sweet and fresh, |
| Then the sudden smell of burning flesh. |
| Strange fruit! |
| Rotten cores! |
| Racist ideas! |
| Strange and stupid wars! |
| Here’s fruit for the crows to pluck, |
| For the rain to gather, for the wind to suck, |
| For the sun to rot, for the tree to drop, |
| Here is a strange and bitter crop. |
