[00:00.00]Strange Fruit - Rokia Traore
[00:58.33]Southern trees bear a strange fruit
[01:06.54]Blood on the leaves and blood at the root
[01:14.45]Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze
[01:22.29]Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees
[01:39.31]Pastoral scene of the gallant south
[01:47.29]The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth
[01:55.84]Scent of magnolias sweet and fresh
[02:03.54]Then the sudden smell of burning flesh
[02:11.91]Here is fruit for the crows to pluck
[02:19.10]For the rain to gather for the wind to suck
[02:27.14]For the sun to rot for the trees to drop
[02:41.10]Here is a strange and bitter crop
