When I Grow Up Lyrics
Boys call you sexy
And you don’t care what they say
See every time you turn around they screaming your name
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
But I ain't complaining
We all wanna be famous
So go ahead and say what you wanna say
You don’t know what its 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 boobies
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
Be careful what you wish for 'cause you just might get it
You just might get it
You just might get it
I used to tell them 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
But I ain't complaining
We all wanna be famous
So go ahead and say what you wanna say
You don’t know what its 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 boobies
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
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 boobies
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
Be careful what you wish for 'cause you just might get it
You just might get it
You just might get 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 boobies
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
Be careful what you wish for 'cause you just might get it
You just might get it
You just might get it

more to the point.. quite obviously it's just about how when you're young it's just all about being young and naive over things you think you want, then you get to where you want to be and you realise the perils.
this song pretty much is the worst song ever and also stands for pretty much everythinbg wrong in the world
Oh, and anyone who calls them untalented sluts it's obvious that they're so uptight (and probably annoyed that 'boys DON'T call them sexy' And I bet they can't sing as good as Nicole. So what if a women wants to use her body and dance suggestively? It's hers to use in whatever way she wants.
this song needs to be smashed; thanks.
agreed.
hhahahaha i had no idea that they were saying "i wanna have groupies" .. it always sounded like "i wanna have boobies" . and thats what lots of little girls want to have when they grow up hahahahha. i just thought that was funny.
i like it :)
Yeah .. I thought it sounded like boobies instead of groupies. I'm still not convinced that it sounds like groupies though.
i think it says boobies too...
hm maybe it does say groupies now that i gave it another listen..haha
