    "i'd rather be a forest than a street
    yes i would, if i could, i surely would"
  2. 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.
