When I grow up (when I grow up) (when I grow up) |
|
I will be tall enough to reach the branches |
|
That I need to reach to climb the trees |
|
You get to climb when you're grown up |
|
And when I grow up (when I grow up) (when I grow up) |
|
I will be smart enough to answer all the questions |
|
That you need to know the answers to |
|
Before you're grown up |
|
And when I grow up (when I grow up) |
|
I will eat sweets every day on the way to work |
|
And I will go to bed late every night |
|
And I will wake up when the sun comes up |
|
And I will watch cartoons until my eyes go square |
|
And I won't care 'cos I'll be all grown up |
|
When I grow up |
|
Even if you're little you can do a lot |
|
You mustn't let a little thing like little stop you |
|
If you sit around and let them get on top |
|
You won't change a thing |
|
Just because you find that life's not fair |
|
It doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it |
|
If you always take it on the chin and wear it |
|
You might as well be saying |
|
You think that it's ok |
|
And that's not right |
|
And if it's not right |
|
You have to put it right |
|
But nobody else is gonna put it right for me |
|
Nobody but me is gonna change my story |
|
Sometimes you have to be a little bit (maggots!) naughty |
