Lyrics
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
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?
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
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 might get it)
You just might get it (you might get it)
You just might get it (you might get it)
But be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it (you might get it)
You just might get it(you might get it)
You just might get it, get it? (you 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 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 might get it)
You just might get it (you might get it)
You just might get it (you might get it)
But be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it (you might get it)
You just might get it (you might get it)
You just might get it, get it? (you might get it)
