    This song expresses a desire for freedom over being tied down. The singer would rather be a sparrow, hammer, or forest than something confined like a snail, nail, or street. They would rather sail away like a swan than be like a man who is tied to the ground and makes the world's saddest sound. The lyrics convey a longing to feel connected to nature rather than restricted.
