Jim McCarty - When I Grow Up lyrics

[Intro] Boys call you s**y (What's up, s**y?) And you don't care what they say See, everytime you turn around They scream your name [Verse 1] Now I've got a confession When I was young I wanted attention And I promised myself that I'd do anything Anything at all for them to notice me [Bridge] But I ain't complaining We all wanna be famous So go ahead and say what you wanna say You know what it's like to be nameless Want them to know what your name is Cause see when I was younger I would say [Chorus] When I grow up I wanna be famous I wanna be a star I wanna be in movies When I grow up I wanna see the world Drive nice cars I wanna have groupies When I grow up Be on TV People know me Be on magazines When I grow up Fresh and clean Number one chick when I step out on the scene [Refrain x2] Be careful what you wish for cause you just might get it You just might get it You just might get it Be careful what you wish for cause you just might get it You just might get it You just might get it [Verse 2] They used to tell me I was silly Until I popped up on the TV I always wanted to be a superstar And knew that singing songs would get me this far [Bridge] But I ain't complaining We all wanna be famous So go ahead and say what you wanna say You know what it's like to be nameless Want them to know what your name is Cause see when I was younger I would say [Chorus] When I grow up I wanna be famous I wanna be a star I wanna be in movies When I grow up I wanna see the world Drive nice cars I wanna have groupies When I grow up Be on TV People know me Be on magazines When I grow up Fresh and clean Number one chick when I step out on the scene [Refrain x2] Be careful what you wish for cause you just might get it You just might get it You just might get it Be careful what you wish for cause you just might get it You just might get it You just might get it [Verse 3] I see them staring at me Oh I'm a trendsetter Yes this is true cause what I do, no one can do it better You can talk about me Cause I'm a hot topic I see you watching me, watching me, and I know you want it [Chorus] When I grow up I wanna be famous I wanna be a star I wanna be in movies When I grow up I wanna see the world Drive nice cars I wanna have groupies When I grow up Be on TV People know me Be on magazines When I grow up Fresh and clean Number one chick when I step out on the scene [Refrain x2] Be careful what you wish for cause you just might get it You just might get it You just might get it Be careful what you wish for cause you just might get it You just might get it You just might get it [Chorus] When I grow up I wanna be famous I wanna be a star I wanna be in movies When I grow up I wanna see the world Drive nice cars I wanna have groupies When I grow up Be on TV People know me Be on magazines When I grow up Fresh and clean Number one chick when I step out on the scene [Refrain x2] Be careful what you wish for cause you just might get it You just might get it You just might get it Be careful what you wish for cause you just might get it You just might get it You just might get it
