A swan ? Me a swan ? Ah, go on !
And he said: “Yes, you’re a swan
Take a look at yourself in the lake and you’ll see”
And he looked, and he saw, and he said
“I am a swan ! Whee !”
I’m not such an ugly duckling
No feathers all stubby and brown
For in fact these birds in so many words said
“The best in town
The best, the best, the best in town”
