"When I Grow Up" 

Bbqwikia

Lyrics:

I get an terrible awful ache,

Specially when it rains.

At first I was a fraidy cat,

But now I know it's growing pains.

Gosh oh gee,

Oh, can't you see.

I'll soon be grown up tall,

So I've gotta think what I will be,

When I'm no longer small.

When I grow up,

In a year or two or three,

I'll be happy as can be,

Like a birdy in a tree.

When I grow up,

There's a lot I want to do.

I will have real dollies too,

Like the woman in the shoe.

I wanna be a teacher so the children can say,

Teacher dear the gang's all here with apples today.

When I grow up,

I will have a big surprise,

For I'll bake the kind of pies,

That'll make you roll your eyes.

And if you see,

That you need some company.

You can call me up,

And I'll come down,

When I grow up!

When I am sweet sixteen,

I am going to a ball.

Of all the ladies there,

I want to be the best of all.

When I am twenty one,

I wish I could look,

Like the picture,

I saw in a pretty story book.

When I get very very old,

I'll stay at home all day.

But I haven't quite made up my mind,

It's much too far away.

When I grow up,

In a year or two or three.

I'll be happy as can be,

Like a birdy in a tree.

When I grow up,

There's a lot I want to do,

I will have real dollies too,

Like the woman in the shoe.

I wanna be a teacher so the children can say,

Teacher dear the gang's all here with apples today.

Whoo!

When I grow up,

I will have a big surprise.

For I'll bake the kind of pies,

That'll make you roll your eyes.

And if you see,

That you need some company.

You can call me up,

And I'll come down.

When I grow up!
