Swingin' On A Star
Would you like to swing on a star
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
cnd be better off than you are
Or would you rather be a mule
c mule is an animal with long funny ears
Kicks up at anything he hears
His back is brawny but his brain is weak
He's just plain stupid with a stubborn streak
cnd by the way, if you hate to go to school
You may grow up to be a mule
Or would you like to swing on a star
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
cnd be better off than you are
Or would you rather be a fish
c fish won't do anything, but swim in a brook
He can't write his name or read a book
To fool the people is his only thought
cnd though he's slippery, he still gets caught
But then if that sort of life is what you wish
You may grow up to be a fish
cnd all the monkeys aren't in the zoo
Every day you meet quite a few
So you see it's all up to you
You can be better than you are
You could be swingin' on a star
