I don't want to be a bird
I'll be shot
nor a fish
to be caught.

I don't want to be a rat
I fear the cat.

I don't want to be a frog
appetite of the croc.

I don't want to be a doe
target of the arrow.

I don't want to be a tree
the wood-cutter knows no mercy.

I don't want to be a chimney
the smoke might **** me.

I don't want to be a car
hate travelling too far.

I don't want to be a train
passengers never cease to complain.

I don't want to be a thief
my dad is the Police-Chief.

I don't want to be a judge
I'd worry too much.

I don't want to be a policeman
scared of the notorious clandestine clan.

I don' want to be a soldier
the gun is too heavy for my shoulder.

I don't want to be an HM
parents and pupils they love to condemn.

I don't want to be an avid reader
lest I end up thinking I'm clever.

I would rather be just an ordinary man
being loved by an extraordinary woman.
