| I’d rather be a sparrow than a snail
|
| Yes I would, if I could, I surely would, mmm
|
| I’d rather be a hammer than a nail
|
| Yes I would, if I only could, I surely would, mmm
|
| 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, mmm, mmm
|
| 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
|
| 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, mmm, mmm |
