When I Grow Up Lyrics - Rock City

My name is Britney 

And I don't care what you say 

Cause you see every time I turn around 

They are screaming my name 

(repeats) 

I swear I was flipping 

They say I was looking like David Gibson 

And then I tried to dance like Michael Jackson 

But people saw me and started laughing 

[Chorus:] 

But I ain't complaining 

It comes with being famous 

So go and say whatever you wanna say 

One upon a time I was nameless 

But now they know what my 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 

(repeats) 

I would dress up like Madonna 

Would even try singing like Cyndi Lauper 

I would pretend I was a superstar 

I never thought me being me 

Will get me that far 

[Chorus:] 

Be careful what you wish for 

Cause you just might get it 

You just might get it 

You just might get it 

(repeats)
