An original setting of a beautiful and haunting poem by the incomparable Langston Hughes. Music and video by Kevin Meehan at Sugar City Studios, Orlando, FL "Genius Child" Nobody loves a genius child. This is a song for the genius child Sing it softly, for the song is wild Sing it softly--as ever you can Lest the song get out of hand Nobody loves a genius child Can you love an eagle Tame or wild? Can you love an eagle Wild or tame? Can you love a monster Of frightening name? Nobody loves a genius child Kill him--and let his soul run wild
