When I Grow Up Lyrics

[00:01.57] Boys call you sexy (what's up, sexy?)
[00:03.68] And you don't care what they say (ha)
[00:05.61] See, everytime you turn around
[00:07.97] They screamin' your name
[00:09.60] Boys call you sexy (what's up, sexy?)
[00:11.55] And you don't care what they say (yeah)
[00:14.04] See, everytime you turn around
[00:16.15] They screamin' your name (Darkchild)
[00:19.27] Now I've got a confession (ha ha ha ha)
[00:22.87] When I was young I wanted attention (ha ha ha ha)
[00:26.84] And I promised myself that I'd do anything (ha ha ha ha)
[00:31.27] Anything at all for them to notice me (ha ha ha ha)
[00:35.37] But I ain't complaining
[00:37.28] We all wanna be famous
[00:39.33] So, go ahead and say what you wanna say
[00:43.13] You know what it's like to be nameless
[00:45.48] Want them to know what your name is
[00:47.56] 'Cause see when I was younger I would say
[00:50.12] When I grow up
[00:51.27] I wanna be famous, I wanna be a star I wanna be in movies
[00:54.42] When I grow up
[00:55.46] I wanna see the world, drive nice cars, I wanna have groupies
[00:58.40] When I grow up
[00:59.47] Be on TV, people know me, be on magazines
[01:02.43] When I grow up
[01:03.46] Fresh and clean, number one chick when I step out on the scene
[01:06.46] But be careful what you wish for
[01:08.52] 'Cause you just might get it
[01:10.89] You just might get it
[01:13.03] You just might get it
[01:14.62] But be careful what you wish for
[01:16.77] 'Cause you just might get it
[01:18.72] You just might get it
[01:20.63] You just might get it, get it?
[01:23.64] They used to tell me I was silly (ha ha ha ha)
[01:27.83] 'Til I popped up on the TV (yeah la la la)
[01:31.89] I always wanted to be a superstar (ha ha ha ha)
[01:35.89] Who knew that singing songs would get me this far? (La la la la)
