I'd rather be a sparrow than a snail,
|
Yes, I would,
|
If I could,
|
I surely would . . . hmm
|
|
I'd rather be a hammer than a nail,
|
Yes, I would,
|
If I only could,
|
I surely would . . . hmm
|
|
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 . . . hmm

I'd rather be a forest than a street,
|
Yes, I would,
|
If I could,
|
I surely would . . . hmm
|
|
I'd rather feel the earth beneath my feet,
|
Yes, I would,
|
If I only could,
|
I surely would . . .

Away, I'd rather sail away,
