Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Little fly, thy summer's play
My thoughtless hand has brushed away
Am I not a fly like thee?
Or art thou not a man like me?
[Verse 2]
For I dance and drink and sing
Till some blind hand shall brush my wing
If thought is life and strength in breath
And the want of thought is death
[Verse 3]
Then I am a happy fly
If I live or if I die
Then I am a happy fly
If I live or if I die
Then I am a happy fly
If I live or if I die
Then I am a happy fly
If I live or if I
Die
[Verse 4]
Little fly, thy summer's play
My thoughtless hand has brushed away
Am I not a fly like thee?
Or art thou not a man like me?
[Verse 5]
For I dance and drink and sing
Till some blind hand shall brush my wing
If thought is life and strength in breath
And the want of thought is death
[Verse 6]
Then I am a happy fly
If I live or if I die
Then I am a happy fly
If I live or if I die
Then I am a happy fly
If I live or if I die
Then I am a happy fly
If I live or if I
Die
