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 (Oh no!)
His back is bony 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 (Yes, I do!)
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 (Oh no!)
He's 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 (No, I don't!)
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 pig?

Would you like to swing on a star?
Carry moonbeams home in a jar?
And be better off than you are
You could be swingin' on a star
You could be swingin' on a star
You could be swingin' on a star
