El condor pasa
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

Chorus:
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

(Instrumental break)

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

(Chorus)
La, la, la...
