If only. Possibly the two saddest words I know.

I fly like a butterfly,
Jump like a kangaroo.
I run like a cheetah.
I dolphin-swim too

I'm as bold as a lion
and swift as a deer.
I glide like an eagle.
Like a rabbit I hear.

I sing like a bird.
I slither like a snake.
I can do anything,
But only 'till I wake.
