My Way

What Would You Like To Be When You Grow Up, Little Boy/Girl?

lithe and long and lean;
I’d like to be a TV star,
shining from the screen.

printed on this page.
I’d like to be a busy nurse,
smoothing down the sheets;
I’d like to be an usher/usherette,
and show you to your seats.
I’d like to be a banker,
and make a lot of money;
I’d like to be a bee-keeper,
and bask on bread and honey.

storming down the street.
I’d like to be a barber/hairdresser,

and try a case or two.
