Lyrics
when i grow up gonna be brave and strong
when i grow up gonna be clever and sly
gonna rule the earth wind and sky
study the frogs and fly
wont let life pass me by
so young and yet so tall
wanting having getting it all
the futures in a crystal ball
i watch them run around with glee
2 years back they were on my knee
all mixed up in natures law
do as they're told
read their lines
look for the warning signs
but life is sweet
and they're far too young
so lets hope and pray
ooh
ooh
and if the world is filled with love
i'd give them buckets we'd fill them up
build that castle in the sky
and if the world is filled with love
i'd give them a great big hug and build a beautiful life
ooh
