Lion Tamer

Stephen Schwartz

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?
