WHEN I GROW UP
YEEHA
IF I WERE A COWBOY I'D RIDE THE WESTERN RANGE
WITHOUT YOU BY MY SIDE I'D FEEL VERY STRANGE
OR IF I WERE A PIRATE I'D SAIL THE SEVEN SEAS
AND WANT YOU ON BOARD SWASHBUCKLING WITH ME
CHILDHOOD DAYDREAMS RETURN NOW AND THEN
WHEN I WOULD WONDER AGAIN AND AGAIN
ABOUT
WHEN I GROW UP WHAT WILL I BE
BUTCHER BAKER CANDLESTICK MAKER
OR NONE OF THE ABOVE LET'S FORGET ALL THREE
IT DON'T REALLY MATTER IF YOU'RE HERE WITH ME
IF I WERE A PILOT AND FLY THE FRIENDLY SKIES
I'D BE CLOSE TO HEAVEN WITH YOU BY MY SIDE
IF I WERE A SPACEMAN I MAY GO FAR
WITH YOU IN MY ROCKET WE'D REACH THE STARS
CHILDHOOD DAYDREAMS RETURN NOW AND THEN
WHEN I WOULD WONDER AGAIN AND AGAIN
ABOUT
WHEN I GROW UP WHAT WILL I BE
BUTCHER BAKER CANDLESTICK MAKER
OR NONE OF THE ABOVE LET'S FORGET ALL THREE
IT DON'T REALLY MATTER IF YOU'RE HERE WITH ME
COWBOYS HAVE SIDEKICKS EVERY PIRATE A MATE
EVERY TEACUP A SAUCER CHALK STICK A SLATE
EVEN PILOTS HAVE COPILOTS SPACEMEN DO TOO
YOU'RE MY CUP OF TEA AND I COULD DO WITH A BREW
CHILDHOOD DAYDREAMS RETURN NOW AND THEN
WHEN I WOULD WONDER AGAIN AND AGAIN ABOUT
WHEN I GROW UP WHAT WILL I BE
BUTCHER BAKER CANDLESTICK MAKER
OR NONE OF THE ABOVE LET'S FORGET ALL THREE
IT DON'T REALLY MATTER IF YOU'RE HERE WITH ME
YEAH WHEN I GROW UP WHAT WILL I DO
BUTCHER BAKER CANDLESTICK MAKER
NO NONE OF THE ABOVE I'LL FIND SOMETHING NEW
WHEN I GROW UP WHAT WILL I BE
IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE IF YOU ARE WITH ME
IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE
WHEN I GROW UP
