Swing high, swing low, upon the trapeze At first you'll fall, but then A year from now you'll do it with ease Over and over and over again A star does not come out of the sky He starts to work at ten To reach the top, you gotta keep trying Over and over and over and over And over and over again It's up in the morning and down in the ring Acrobat, rider and clown Queen of the wire and aerial king Work or you'll forfeit your crown You stick to your trick And your trick will be art Artists are hard-working men After you're perfect, that's when you first start Over and over again, once again, and again Do it over and over again Swing high, swing low, upon the trapeze At first you'll fall, but then A year from now, you'll do it with ease Over and over and over and over again To reach the top you gotta keep trying Over and over and over and over And over and over again Over and over again
