I'd rather be a sparrow
than a snail
Yes I would
if I could
I surely would
ooooh
I'd rather be a hammer
than a nail
Yes I would
if I only could
I surely would
oooh
Away I'd rather
sail away
Like a swan
that's here and gone
A man gets tied up
to the ground
He gives the world
it's saddest sound
it's saddest sound
oooh ooh
I'd rather be a forest
than a stream
yes I would
if I could
I surely would
I'd rather feel the earth
beneath my feet
yes I would
if I only could
I surely would
