I'd rather be a sparrow than a snail.
Yes I would if I could.
I surely would
hmn.
I'd rather be a hammer than a nail.
Yes I would if I only could.
I surely would
hmn.
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.
hmn
I'd rather be a forest than a street.
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.
