I want to be a bird
But I am fearful of heights.
I want to be a tiger
But it gives me the frights.
I want to be a bee
But am afraid of the sting.
I want to be an ant
But am scared of the troubles it'll bring.
I want to be a doctor
But am afraid of the dead.
I want to be a porter
But it'll be a load on my head.
I want to be an engineer
But it is a lot of strain.
I want to be a scientist
But it needs a lot of brain.
I want to be the Sun
But it's too hot for me.
I want to be the wind
But it's too fast for me.
I want to be the ocean
But it's too deep for me.
I want to be the stars
But they are too far from me.
I want to be a man
Which I can
I want to be kind
And not left behind
I want to be gracious
But not over ambitious
I want to be free
But not go in a spree
I want to be nice
But not gripped by vice
I want to laugh
I want to sing
I want to do my own thing.
