Movie/Films to Die for: Soko's Classic Picks

You are tired of all the Amanda Knox stories. And you just shrugged off the news that Museveni rode economy on his way home. You are also bored by the Cablanasian, Tiger Woods' escapades of being pussy-whipped by white gals. Lucky for him his Viking wife didn't whack his head with a golf club. It is cold outside or it is unmercifully hot tropical December. What to do? Don't worry; Soko is here to help. I will from time to time pick up some Movie classics I have enjoyed. None of the trashy Hollywood, Bolywood, or Nollywood stuff. We are talking of well-crafted independent movies.

The bird's trapped in the body's cage
(Pakhita bonde ache)
The bird's trapped in the body's cage

It's feet bound by wordly chains
It tries to fly but fails
The bird's trapped in the body's cage
The bird's trapped in the body's cage

Rainbow colored birds
Circle freely in the sky
Their brilliant splendour
A rupture for the eye

The bird's trapped in the body's cage
The bird's trapped in the body's cage
It's feet bound by worldly chains
It's feet bound by wordly chains

The bird pines with longing
Yearns to spread its wings
It wants to join the joyful birds
Leaving its fleeting home

The bird's trapped in the body's cage
The bird's trapped in the body's cage
It's feet bound by worldly chains
It's feet bound by wordly chains

The clay bird laments:
Why did you infuse
My heart with longing,
If you didn't give my wings
The strength to fly?

The bird's trapped in the body's cage
The bird's trapped in the body's cage
Its feet bound by worldly chains.
