Mayday Parade

Boys call you sexy (Whats up, sexy?)
And you dont care what they say
See everytime you turn around
Theyre screaming your name...
Now Ive got a confession (ha, ha, ha, ha)
When I was young, I wanted attention (ha, ha, ha, ha)
And I promised myself that Id do anything (ha, ha, ha, ha)
Anything at all for them to notice me (ha, ha, ha, ha)
But I aint complaining We all wanna be famous
So go ahead and say What you wanna say
You dont 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
They used to tell me I was silly
Until I popped up on the TV (la, la, la, la)
I always wanted to be a superstar
Who knew singing songs would get me this far? (la, la, la, la)
I see them staring at me Oh, Im a trendsetter
Yes, this is true, cause what I do
No one can do it better You can talk about me
Cause Im a hot topic I see you watching me
Watching me And I know you want it, oh
[ When I Grow Up Lyrics ]
