歌词与翻译

[中文]

青蛙会跳跃 鳄鱼会撕咬

灰狼群将主宰黑夜

山狮从不惧高

但能飞翔才最美好

野兔蹦跳 水獭嬉闹

公鸡整日喔喔啼叫

鲶鱼善游却也会说道

能飞翔才更美妙

蔚蓝天际的风景

居高临下如此绮丽

忧郁来袭也难将我困住

我自能脱逃远去

我不似狐狸狡黠 不如蜜蜂锋利

灰熊见我从不会逃避

可它们永远无缘得见的奇景

唯有飞翔才能触及

啊 蔚蓝天际的风景

居高临下如此绮丽

忧郁来袭也难将我困住

我自能脱逃远去

众生虽歌 难及我声

树冠之上空气更清

仰首可见我翱翔的英姿

能飞翔才最美好

蔚蓝天际的风景

居高临下如此绮丽

忧郁来袭也难将我困住

我自能脱逃远去

乌鸦纵能凌云霄

终有坠入尘埃时分

我今跌入谷底茫然自问

飞翔是否仍美好

[英语]

FROGS GONNA LEAP, GATORS GONNA BITE

A GREY WOLF PACK IS GOING TO RULE THE NIGHT

A MOUNTAIN LION HAS NEVER BEEN AFRAID OF HEIGHTS

BUT IT'S BETTER WHEN YOU CAN FLY

BUNNIES GONNA HOP, OTTERS GONNA PLAY

THE ROOSTER CAN COCK-A-DOODLE-DO ALL DAY

CATFISH CAN SWIM BUT I BET THEY'D SAY

IT'S BETTER WHEN YOU CAN FLY

THE VIEW FROM THE BLUE SKY

IT LOOKS SO GOOD WHEN YOU'RE UP HIGH

THE BLUES COME 'ROUND THEY WON'T GET ME DOWN

I CAN MAKE MY ESCAPE

I AM NOT SLY LIKE A FOX, DON'T STING LIKE A BEE

A GRIZZLY WOULD NEVER RUN AWAY FROM ME

BUT THINK OF ALL THE THINGS THEY COULD NEVER SEE

IT'S BETTER WHEN YOU CAN FLY

OH, THE VIEW FROM THE BLUE SKY

IT LOOKS SO GOOD WHEN YOU'RE UP HIGH

THE BLUES COME 'ROUND THEY WON'T GET ME DOWN

I CAN MAKE MY ESCAPE

OH, EVERYBODY SINGS BUT NOT LIKE ME

THE AIR IS MUCH BETTER HERE ABOVE THE TREES

LOOK UP IN THE SKY I'M A SIGHT TO SEE

IT'S BETTER WHEN YOU CAN FLY

THE VIEW FROM THE BLUE SKY

IT LOOKS SO GOOD WHEN YOU'RE UP HIGH

THE BLUES COME 'ROUND THEY WON'T GET ME DOWN

I CAN MAKE MY ESCAPE

NO MATTER HOW HIGH A CROW CAN GO

THERE IS GONNA COME A TIME WHEN HE'S BROUGHT DOWN LOW

I'VE HIT ROCK BOTTOM AND I JUST DON'T KNOW

IF IT'S BETTER WHEN YOU CAN FLY
