Lyrics
Boys call you sexy And you don't care what they say See every time you turn around They screaming your name Now I've got a confession When I was young I wanted attention And I promised myself that I'd do anything Anything at all for them to notice me But I ain't complaining We all wanna be famous So go ahead and say what you wanna say You don't know what its 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 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 They used to tell me I was silly Until I popped up on the TV...
