Generate meaning
1
Would you like to swing on a star?
2
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
3
And be better off than you are
4
Or would you rather be a mule?
5
A mule is an animal with long funny ears
6
Kicks up at anything he hears
7
His back is brawny but his brain is weak
8
He's just plain stupid with a stubborn streak
9
And by the way, if you hate to go to school
10
You may grow up to be a mule
11
Or would you like to swing on a star?
12
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
13
And be better off than you are
14
Or would you rather be a pig?
15
A pig is an animal with dirt on his face
16
His shoes are a terrible disgrace
17
He has no manners when he eats his food
18
He's fat and lazy and extremely rude
19
But if you don't care a feather or a fig
20
You may grow up to be a pig
21
Or would you like to swing on a star?
22
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
23
And be better off than you are
24
Or would you rather be a fish?
25
A fish won't do anything, but swim in a brook
26
He can't write his name or read a book
27
To fool the people is his only thought
28
And though he's slippery, he still gets caught
29
But then if that sort of life is what you wish
30
You may grow up to be a fish
31
A new kind of jumped-up slippery fish
32
And all the monkeys aren't in the zoo
33
Every day you meet quite a few
34
So, you see it's all up to you
35
You can be better than you are
36
You could be swingin' on a star
