When I Grow Up

Boys call you sexy (what's up, sexy?)
 And you don't care what they say (ha)
 See, everytime you turn around
 They screamin' your name
 Boys call you sexy (what's up, sexy?)
 And you don't care what they say (yeah)
 See, everytime you turn around
 They screamin' your name (Darkchild)
 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 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 chick when I step out on the scene
 But be careful what you wish for
 'Cause you just might get it
 You just might get it
 You just might get it
 But 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 (ha ha ha ha)
 'Til I popped up on the TV (yeah la la la)
 I always wanted to be a superstar (ha ha ha ha)
 Who knew that 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

 I see them staring at me
 Ooh, I'm a trendsetter
 Yes, this is true 'cause what I do
 No one can do it better
 You could 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
