"If I Could Be..." lyrics

If I could be a little birdie
I would fly so high I'd not be hurt
When I got tired I'd hang out in a tree
If I could be a fish that swam
I would use my fins and go so fast
Nobody would ever catch me

But I really wouldn't wanna be
Anything else but me
I only wanna pretend in my daydreams

That I could be an alligator
They'd all jump back, I'd say see ya later
And I would have the pond just for me
If I could be a big white dog
I would bark and jump on everyone
And they'd all pat my head and give me treats

But I really wouldn't wanna be
Anything else but me
I only wanna pretend in my daydreams

That I could be a little bug
I would hide and spy on everyone
And nobody would know that it is me
It's just me
Hey, it's me
