Текст песни.
Lenka "Everything at once"
As sly as a fox, as strong as an ox
As fast as a hare, as brave as a bear
As free as a bird, as neat as a word
As quite as a mouse, as big as a house
All I wanna be, all I wanna be, oh
All I wanna be is everything
As mean as a wolf, as sharp as a tooth
As deep as a bite, as dark as the night
As sweet as a song, as right as a wrong
As long as a road, as ugly as a toad
As pretty as a picture hanging from a fixture
Strong like a family, strong as I wanna be
Bright as day, as light as play
As hard as nails, as grand as a whale
All I wanna be, oh, all I wanna be, oh
All I wanna be is everything, everything at once
Everything at once, oh, everything at once
As warm as the sun, as silly as fun
As cool as a tree, as scary as the sea
As hot as fire, cold as ice
Sweet as sugar and everything nice
As old as time, as straight as a line
As royal as a queen, as buzzed as a bee
As stealth as a tiger, smooth as a glider
Pure as a melody, pure as I wanna be
All I wanna be, oh, all I wanna be, oh
All I wanna be is everything, everything at once

As long as a way, as green as a may.
As yellow as a light,as dark as a night.
As sunny as a day, as sharp as a cay.
As new as a phone, as white as a bone.

As cool as a girl, as big as a world
As friendly as a boy, as interesting as toy
As small as a cap, as old as a map
As beautiful as a light, as high as a kite .
(by Ksenya)

As black as a rat, as beautiful as a hat,
As quiet as a leaf, as free as life,
as best as a friend, as right as a hand
as jumpy as a ball, as big as a hall
(by Julia)
