When I Grow Up
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
My name is britney
And i don't care what you say
Cause you see every time i turn around
They are screaming my name
(repeats)
I swear i was flipping
They say i was looking like david gibson
And then i tried to dance like michael jackson
But people saw me and started laughing
Chorus
But i ain't complaining
It comes with being famous
So go and say whatever you wanna say
One upon a time i was nameless
But now they know what my 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
Be careful what you wish for
Cause you just might get it
You just might get it
You just might get it
(repeats)
I would dress up like madonna
Would even try singing like cyndi lauper
I would pretend i was a superstar
I never thought me being me
Will get me that far
Chorus
Be careful what you wish for
Cause you just might get it
You just might get it
You just might get it
(repeats)
