how does a prima graduate to ballerina
i'll give you a little clue
to be in the world class ballet company
there's one thing that you must love to do
practice practice practice
if at first you don't succeed
don't give up, just keep on trying
till you get up to speed
first position, second position, third and
fourth and fifth
plies make you sleek and strong
but first you're gonna be kinda stiff
time to do our releves, then our pas de
bournettes
we're dizzy doing pirouetttes, we love our
grand jetes
practice practice practice at the ballet barre
this is what you love to do to be a ballet star
do your best and you'll get better
just don't call it quits
all at once you'll find that you're so flexible
you can even do the splits
practice practice practice
if at first you don't succeed
don't give up, just keep on trying
till you get up to speed
first position, second postition, on and on it
goes
and one day you'll do aerobettes standing on
your toes
for each and every one percent of style and
inspiration
a new york city ballerina gives it ninty nine percent
perspiration
practice practice practice will surely make
you number one
but you don't have to be a prima just to have
some fun
