這首是前幾天我們國文老師放給我們聽的(剛好教到楊牧的"亭午之鷹"), 旋律很有動感,聽我們國文老師說這首是他們那年代大學舞會必放的歌曲呢!!

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
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 only could, I surely would
