I'd rather be a sparrow than a snail. Yes I would. If I could, I surely would.
I'd rather be a hammer than a nail. Yes I would. If I could, I surely would.
Away, I'd rather sail away Like a swan that's here and gone A man gets tied his feet on the ground It gives the world It's saddest sound, It's saddest sound.
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 could, I surely would.
