Bill Wurtz - When I get older lyrics

When I get older I’m gonna be stronger So I can lift up the whole entire world I’m gonna hold it And lift it higher Higher than it’s been before When I hear music I get excited I’m gonna sing songs for the whole entire world And when the whole world sings to the music That’s when I’ll know it worked But my friends say I’m still a baby And they threw away my baby shoes Well, excuse me, I’m going sailing Into the ocean blue When I get older I’m gonna be wilder And write poetry in my spare time And I’ll use some very interesting metaphors And then post my poems online Here’s a poem about rain And the water droplets that it creates And I wonder if you feel it this way And I wonder if it seems okay Here’s a poem about fame And the strange things famous people say And the strange world that hears them say it Almost every single day When I get older I’m gonna drive slowly ‘Til I get to all the places I’m going And when I get there I’m gonna drive backwards ‘Til we get home again And I’m faced with so many changes That I just might change my face But face paint seems a bit tenacious So I just might paint my brain When I get younger I’m gonna be a liar I’ll be lying about being so young Then when I’m older I’ll be more truthful And then lie about singing this song Then the song will sing me Then the song won’t sing it for free And I don’t quite know what it means And it feels like the song knows me Then I’m hearing it in my dreams And each dream seems pretty sweet And the music cured my disease Then the song’s complete When I get older I’m gonna be stronger So I can lift up the whole entire world I’m gonna hold it And lift it higher Then I’ll lift it moreee.
