Swinging On A Star Songtext

Would you like to swing on a star Carry moonbeams home in a jar And be better off than you are Or would you rather be a mule A mule is an animal with long funny ears He kicks up at anything he hears His back is brawny - and his brain is weak He's just plain stupid with a - stubborn streak And by the way, if you hate to go to school You may grow up to be a mule Would you like to swing on a star Carry moonbeams home in a jar And be better off than you are Or would you rather be a pig A pig is an animal with dirt on his face His shoes are a terrible disgrace He ain't got no manners when he eats his food He's fat and lazy - and extremely rude But if you don't care a feather or a fig You may grow up to be a pig Would you like to swing on a star Carry moonbeams home in a jar And be better off than you are Or would you rather be a fish A fish won't do anything but swim in a brook He cant write his name or read a book And to fool the people is his only thought Though he slippery - he still gets caught But then if that sort of life is what you wish You may grow up to be a fish And all the monkeys aren't in a 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 swinging on a star
