El Condor Pasa

El Condor¹ Pasa

    I*d rather be a sparrow than a snail². 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 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.
