Verse 1
When I grow up
When at last I find Im a grown up
When I cannot climb any higher
What will I be, What will I be, What will I be
When I grow up
When Ive finished school and I have to go
When Ive learnt the things that Ive gotta know
What will I be, What will I be, What will I be
(4,3,2,1)
Chorus
Astronaut
Wouldnt it be fun
Flying in the sun
And on to Jupiter and Mars
Heading out to Pluto
Flying in my Spaceship
Going anywhere I want to go
Verse 2
When I grow up
Will I want the things that I want today
Will they be the things Ill need on my way
What will I need, What will I need, What will I need
When I grow up
When Ive done the things that Ive tried to do
Will I be someone to look up to
What will I be, What will I be, What will I be
(4,3,2,1)
Outro
Will I be a space man
Will I be a good man
Will I ever understand why I am alive
Will I be a good guy
Will I be a cacti
Will I ever know why, why I am alive
When I grow up
Will my dreams belong to me
Will there be hope for me
Does anybody know
Which way to go
Cause I want to know
