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 up to the ground
He 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
