When we grow up, will I be pretty? |
|
Will you be big and strong? |
|
Will I wear dresses that show off my knees? |
|
Will you wear trousers twice as long? |
|
Well, I don't care if I'm pretty at all. |
|
And I don't care if you never get tall. |
|
I like what I look like, and you're nice small. |
|
We don't have to change at all. |
|
Hey! |
|
When we grow up, will I be a lady? |
|
Will you be an engineer? |
|
Will I have to wear things like perfume and gloves? |
|
I can still pull the whistle while you steer. |
|
Well, I don't care if I'm pretty at all. |
|
And I don't care if you never get tall. |
|
I like what I look like, and you're nice small. |
|
We don't have to change at all. |
|
When I grow up, I'm gonna be happy and do what I like to do, |
|
Like making noise and making faces and making friends like you. |
|
And when we grow up, do you think we'll see |
|
That I'm still like you and you're still like me? |
|
I might be pretty; you might grow tall. |
|
But we don't have to change at all. |
|
spoken: I don't want to change, see, 'cause I still want to be your friend, forever and ever and ever and ever and ever. |
