Swinging On A Star

[Chorus]
Would you like to swing on a star?
Carry moonbeams home in a jar?
And be better off than you are? (Doobie-doo-doo)
Or would you rather be a mule?

[Verse 1]
A 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
And by the way, if you hate to go to school
You may grow up to be a mule

[Chorus]
Or would you like to swing on a star?
Carry moonbeams home in a jar?
And be better off than you are? (Do, do)
Or would you rather be a pig?

[Verse 2]
A pig is an animal with dirt on his face
His shoes are a terrible disgrace
He has no manners when he eats his food
Hе's fat, and lazy, and extremely rudе
But if you don't care a feather or a fig
You may grow up to be a pig

[Chorus]
Or would you like to swing on a star?
Carry moonbeams home in a jar?
And be better off than you are? (Do, do)
Or would you rather be a fish?

[Verse 3]
A 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
And 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

[Verse 4]
And all the monkeys aren't in the zoo
Every day you'll meet quite a few
So, you see, it's all up to you

[Spoken]
Y'know you're all terrific
But you can be even better than you are

[Outro]
You could be swingin' on a star
You could be swingin' on a star
You could be swingin' on a star!
