Lyrics of Harpo's blues

I wish i was willow
And i could sway to the music in the wind
I wish i was a lover
I wouldn't need my costumes and pretend

I wish i was a mountain
I'd pass boldly through the clouds and never end
I wish i was a soft refrain
When the lights were out i'd play and be your friend

I strut and fret my hour upon the stage
The hour is up
I have to run and hide my rage
I'm lost again, i think i'm really scared
I won't be back at all this time
And have my deepest secrets shared

I'd like to be a willow a lover
A mountain or a soft refrain
But i'd hate to be a grown-up
And have to try to bear my life in pain

I wish i was a soft refrain
When the lights were out i'd play and be your friend
I strut and fret my hour upon the stage
The hour is up
I have to run and hide my rage
I'm lost again, i think i'm really scared
I won't be back at all this time
And have my deepest secrets shared

I'd like to be a willow
A lover a mountain or a soft refrain
But i'd hate to be a grown-up
And have to try to bear my life in pain
And i have to try to bear my life in pain
And i have to try to bear my life in pain
And i have to try to bear my life in pain
And i have to try to bear my life in pain
