Today it would be:

Independent film : The Land

To survive, to survive the land
Either you're busy living or busy dying, look what it's come to
Look what it's come to, so what you're gonna do?

(2/2) Sweet and fresh,
Then the sudden smell of burning flesh
Here is a 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.

(1/2) Southern trees bear a strange fruit
Blood on the leaves & blood at the root
Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze
Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees
Pastoral scene of the gallant South
The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth
Scent of magnolia
