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 only could, I surely would
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 its saddest sound, its 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 only could, I surely would
