Mayday Parade - When I Grow Up [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Boys call you sexy (what's up, sexy?)
And you don't care what they say (quit it!)
See everytime you turn around
They're screaming your name...

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 don't 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 boy 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 (get it)

They used to tell me I was silly (la, la, la, la)
Until I popped up on the TV (la, la, la, la)
I always wanted to be a superstar (la, la, la, la)
Who knew 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 don't 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 boy 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 groupies
When I grow up, be on TV
People know me, be on magazines
When I grow up, fresh and clean
Number one boy 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
