When I Grow Up

When you are young, you can think about
being anything when you grow up
You're not burdened by pesky things like reality,
rent or whatever your limitations happen to be
Now is the time in your mind when you can be anything
So dream hard, think big, dream and maybe
one day you'll succeed and things will be amazing
So get ready and repeat after me

When I grow up, I want to be a fireman
When you grow up, you want to be a sheep herder
When I grow up, I want to be a garbage man
When you grow up, you want to be an astronaut
When I grow up, I want to be a snowman
When you grow up, you want to be a center fielder
When I grow up, I want to be a time traveler
When you grow up, you want to be a math teacher

Or you can make up a very silly song

When I grow up, I want to be a pilot
When you grow up, you want to be a massage therapist
When I grow up, I want to be a prison guard
When you grow up, you want to be the president
When I grow up, I want to be a mime
When you grow up, you want to be a stunt woman
When I grow up, I want to be a sous chef
When you grow up, you want to flip houses

Clap your hands
Or you can make up a very silly song
Hey Bemular, that song's no good!  I know
 
When you are young, you can think about
being anything when you grow up
You're not burdened by pesky things like reality,
rent or whatever your limitations happen to be
Now is the time in your mind when you can be anything
So dream hard, think big, dream and maybe
one day you'll succeed and things will be amazing
But even if not, it's about the journey

When I grow up, I want to be...
When you grow up, you want to be...
