1:39:02
His back is brawny but his brain is weak
1:39:05
He's just plain stupid with a stubborn streak
1:39:08
And by the way, if you hate to go to school
1:39:12
You may grow up to be a mule
1:39:14
[Boys singing] Or would you like to
swing on a star
1:39:17
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
1:39:20
And be better off than you are
1:39:25
Or would you rather be a pig
1:39:27
A pig is an animal with dirt on his face
1:39:31
His shoes are a terrible disgrace
1:39:34
He has no manners when he eats his food
1:39:37
He's fat and lazy and extremely rude
1:39:40
But if you don't care a feather or a fig
1:39:44
You may grow up to be a pig
1:39:46
Or would you like to swing on a star
1:39:50
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
1:39:53
And be better off than you are
1:39:57
Or would you rather be a fish
1:40:00
A fish won't do anything,
but swim in a brook
1:40:03
He can't write his name or read a book
1:40:06
To fool the people is his only thought
1:40:09
Yeah, but even though he's slippery,
he still gets caught
1:40:12
But then if that sort of life is what you wish
1:40:16
You may grow up to be a fish
1:40:19
And all the monkeys aren't in the zoo
1:40:22
Every day you meet quite a few
1:40:25
So you see it's all up to you
1:40:30
You can be better than you are
1:40:35
You could be swingin' on a star
1:40:46
- Is that your song, Father?
- Yes.
1:40:49
Well, we'll take a flier on that.
1:40:51
Did you hear that, Timmy?
1:40:54
[Laughing excitedly]
1:40:55
O'DOWD: You're a grand lad.
1:40:58
I knew your name wasn't Dolan for nothing.
