A Man I'd Rather Be

Lyrics for A Man I'd Rather Be

Now I wish I was a dog Lazin' about all day With the barks so loud and fierce To keep the cats away But a man's a man And a dog's a slave So man i would rather be Now I wish I was a book Upon a dusted shelf With a millions of words to read Lord but I can't even read myself But a man's a man And a book can't think So man I would rather be Now I wish I was a brick In a middle of a wall With a plastic coat and hat I would have no cares at all But a man's a man And a brick won't talk So man I would rather be Now I wish I was a fly A buzzin' around and around Racin' through the air With no spiders to be found But a man's a man And a fly get squashed So a man I would rather be
