Frank Sinatra – Swinging On A Star Lyrics  Share

From Frank Sinatra's album: The Complete Reprise Studio Recordings - Disk7

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

Or 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^,s got no manners when he eats his food
He^,s fat and lazy and extremely rude
[ Swinging On A Star lyrics from
http://www.musiclyricsnow.net/f/frank-sinatra/swinging-on-star/ ]
But if you don^,t care a feather or a fig
You may grow up to be a pig

[instrumental-first 3 lines of chorus]
Or would you rather be a fish?

A fish won^,t do anything but swim in a brook
He can^,t write his name or read a book
To fool all the people is his only thought
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

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 swingin^, on a star
