lyrics

I am a bird, yes I am
I spread my wings, yes I can
I ride the air, anywhere
I am a bird, yes I am

From way up here the world looks small
And big, and geometrical
I'd like to stay up here by myself
But I am too tired, and I'm just a bird

I am a leaf, yes I am
I shade the sun, yes I can
I ride the wind, in the fall
I am a leaf, yes I am

On my way down I spin around
And let out one last sigh
My flight does not last very long, oh well
My landing is soft, cause I'm just a leaf

Oh

I am a man, yes I am
I cannot fly, no I can't
UNLESS, OF COURSE, I'M IN A PLANE
I'm just a man, yes ma'am
