A dancer or a rock star?

A dancer or a rock star?

Words and music by Mario Papa

From "Jump Rope" by Mario Papa & Janet Shelly,

Istituto Geografico De Agostini, Novara, 2000

“What do you want to do

When you finish school

What do you want to do,

My little darling?”

“I can dance the hoola-hoop,

And I can hop on one foot,

So I can be a dancer in the ballroom.”

“What do you want to do

When you finish school

If you are not so clever as a dancer?”

“I can drive a sporty-car

And I can play my guitar,

So I can be a rock star in America.

So I can be a rock star in America.”

"In America!"
