Lion Tamer Stephen Schwartz (Ft. Dale Soules)

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 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 everyone has a special calling
Something that only she can do

I could 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
