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'd Like To Be A Lion Tamer.
If I Could Be A Lion Tamer I Could 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 Rose.
But Everyone Has A Special Calling, Something That Only He Can Do…
I Could Be Such A Lion Tamer…
If I Could Be A Lion Tamer I Would Be Special Too.

I Could Begin With Baby Leopards, Move On To Tiger Cubs An Then,
After I Learn To Handle Lions Maybe I Could Work Up To Men…
I Never Wanted Fancy Mansions, Butlers And Footmen, Liver Reed.
I Never Wanted Lots Of Money: Money Can't Buy What You Really Need.
I Never Prayed For Any Favors, But Here I Am On Knobby Knee…
Please Let Me Be A Lion Tamer.
If I Could Be A Lion Tamer Wouldn't He Have To Finally Notice Me?
