When I grow up
I will be tall enough to reach the branches
That you have reach to climb the trees
You get to climb when you're grown up

And when I grow up
I will be smart enough to answer all
The questions that you need to know
The answers to
When you're grown up

And when I grow up
I will eat sweets every day
On the way to work and I will
Go to bed late every night
And I will wake up

When the sun comes up and I
Will watch cartoons until my eyes go square
And I won't care 'cause I'll be all grown up
When I grow up

When I grow up (when I grow up)
I will be strong enough to carry all
The heavy things you have to haul
Around with you when you're a grown up

When I grow up (when I grow up)
I will be brave enough to fight the creatures
That you have to fight beneath your bed
Each night to be a grown up

And when I grow up
I will have treats every day
And I'll play with things that mum pretends
That mums don't think are fun
And I will wake up
When the sun comes up and I
Will spend all day just lying in the sun
And I won't burn 'cause I'll be all grown up
When I grow up
