[ti:Swinging On A Star] [ar:Rosemary Clooney] [al:From Bing To Billie] [by:] [offset:0] [00:04.45]Would you like to swing on a star [00:07.44]Carry moonbeams home in a jar [00:10.31]And be better off than you are [00:13.25]Or would you rather be a mule [00:16.05] [00:17.46]A mule is an animal with long funny ears [00:19.75]Kicks up at anything he hears [00:22.36]His back is brawny and his brain is weak [00:25.42]He's just plain stupid with a stubborn streak [00:28.47]And by the way if you hate to go to school [00:30.53]You may grow up to be a mule [00:34.21]Or would you like to swing on a star [00:37.40]Carry moonbeams home in a jar [00:40.33]And be better off than you are [00:43.51]Or would you rather be a pig [00:46.69] [01:16.83]A pig is an animal with dirt on his face [01:19.52]His shoes are a terrible disgrace [01:21.14]He ain't got no manners when he eats his food [01:25.27]He's fat and lazy and extremely rude [01:28.27]But if you don't care a feather or a fig [01:31.20]You may grow up to be a pig [01:33.45]Or would you like to swing on a star [01:36.19]Carry moonbeams home in a jar [01:39.31]And be better off than you are [01:42.13]Or would you rather be a fish [01:46.55] [02:16.11]A fish won't do anything but swim in a brook [02:18.78]He can't write his name or read a book [02:21.28]And to fool the people is his only thought [02:24.71]And though he's slippery he still gets caught [02:27.27]But then if that sort of life is what you wish [02:30.76]You may grow up to be a fish [02:33.94]And all the monkeys aren't in the zoo [02:36.19] [02:36.82]Every day you meet quite a few [02:39.31]So you see it's all up to you [02:41.99] [02:42.68]You can be better than you are [02:46.30] [02:49.73]You could be swingin' on a star
