Swinging On A Star

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 
Scut ,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 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 

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 

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
