Various Artists - When I Grow Up lyrics

Boys call you s**y (what's up, s**y?) And you don't care what they say (quit it!) See everytime you turn around They're screaming your name... Now I've got a confession (ha, ha, ha, ha) When I was young, I wanted attention (ha, ha, ha, ha) And I promised myself that I'd do anything (ha, ha, ha, ha) Anything at all for them to notice me (ha, ha, ha, ha) But I ain't complaining We all wanna be famous So go ahead and say what you wanna say You don't 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 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 boy when I step out on the scene 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 (get it) They used to tell me I was silly (la, la, la, la) Until I popped up on the TV (la, la, la, la) I always wanted to be a superstar (la, la, la, la) Who knew singing songs would get me this far? (la, la, la, la) But I ain't complaining We all wanna be famous So go ahead and say what you wanna say You don't 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 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 boy when I step out on the scene 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 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! 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 boy when I step out on the scene 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
