Lyrics Nina Simone

Nina Simone

The Assignment Song

Bouncing off your wall

Pathways of my mind

Are on their way

Another way

For today

Ohho

You want me to see you

I can not see you

You want me to come for you

I can not come for you

You want an assignment

I see no concession

Shall I hang my head with yours and be blue

Send alway laughter

And spend all my time, com'on darling

Thinking about you

Don't you know there are things I can't do

My mind is on it's way

Another way

For today

Ohho

My spirit is so foreign

You want silence

My spirit I'd taking flight

But baby you wanna cry tonight

Shall I hang my head with yours

Send away laughter and fun

And spend all my time

Thinking about you

Only about you

Don't you know there are things

That I can't do

My mind is on it's way

Another way

For today

Heyheyy...
