Lion Tamer |
| I’d like to be a lion tamer |
| Sequins and tights and silk top hats |
| I know I could be a lion tamer |
| I’ve always gotten along with cats |
| I’d have a whip but never use it |
| I’d simply hold it in my hand |
| I wanna be a lion tamer |
| If I could be a lion tamer |
| I would be someone grand |
| I couldn’t be a ballerina |
| I never could stand on my toes |
| I couldn’t be a Spanish dancer |
| I’d look ridiculous with a rose |
| But ev’ryone has a special calling |
| Something that only he can do |
| I would be such a lion tamer |
| If I could be lion tamer |
| I would be special too |
| I could begin with baby leopards |
| Move on to tiger cubs and then |
| After I learned to handle lions |
| Maybe I could work up to men |
| I never wanted fancy mansions |
| Butlers and footmen liveried |
| I never wanted lots of money |
| Money can’t buy what I really need |
| I never prayed for any favors |
| But here I am on knobby knees |
| Please let me be a lion tamer |
| If I could be a lion tamer |
| Wouldn’t he have to finally notice me? |
