This is the first song I ever sang in front of a whole bunch of people. My classmates and I had learnt this song when we were Primary 1 and one day, my teacher pulled two friends and I up on stage to sing the song for everyone... without prior warning. I remember feeling vert nervous and just refusing to sing while up there. The same thing happened to my friends. All the same, this song is very cute and I still have a soft spot for it in my heart.

If I Were A Butterfly
(The Butterfly Song)
Words and Music by Brian Howard

If I were a butterfly,
I'd thank you, Lord, for giving me wings;
And if I were a robin in a tree,
I'd thank you Lord, that I could sing;
And if I were a fish in the sea,
I'd wiggle my tail and I'd giggle with glee;
But I just Thank You Father, for making me - ME!

Chorus
'Cause you gave me a heart and
You gave me a smile
You gave me Jesus, and
You made me His Child
And I just Thank You, Father
For making me - ME!

If I were an elephant,
I'd thank you, Lord, by raising my trunk;
And if I were a kangaroo,
I'd hop, hop, hop, right up to you;
And if I were an octopus,
I'd thank you, Lord, for my good looks;
But I just Thank You, Father, for making me - ME!

Chorus

If I were a wiggly worm,
I'd thank you, Lord, that I could squirm;
And if I were a crocodile,
I'd thank you, Lord, for my big smile;
And if I were a fuzzy-wuzzy bear,
I'd thank you, Lord, for my fuzzy-wuzzy hair;
But I just Thank You, Father, for making me - ME!

Chorus
