Be the star if you can't be sun

If you can't be a pine on the top of the hill,
Be a scrub in the valley
But be The little scrub by the side of the rill;
Be a bush if you can't be a tree

If you can't be a bush, be a bit of the grass,
And some highway happier make;
if you can't be a muskie, then just be a bass
But the liveliest bass in the lake!

We can't all be captains, we've got to be crew,
There is something for all of us here.
There is big work to do and there is lesser to do
And the task we must do is the near

If you can't be a highway, then just be a trail,
If you can't be the sun, be a star;
It isn't by size that you win or you fail
Be the best of whatever you are!
