When I Grow Up |
When I grow up, I want to be a forester |
Run through the moss on high heels |
That’s what I’ll do, throwing out a boomerang |
Waiting for it to come back to me oooh oh |
When I grow up, I want to live near the sea |
Crab claws and bottles of rum |
That’s what I’ll have, staring at the seashell |
Waiting for it to embrace me oooh oh |
I put my soul in what I do |
Last night I drew a funny man |
With dark eyes and a hanging tongue |
It goes way bad, I never liked that sad look |
From someone who wants to be loved by you oooh oh |
I’m very good with plants |
When my friends are away |
They let me keep the soil moist |
On the seventh day I rest |
For a minute or two |
Then back on my feet to cry for you oooh oh |
You’ve got cucumbers on your eyes |
Too much time spent on nothing |
Waiting for a moment to arise |
The face in the ceiling and arms too long |
I’m waiting for him to catch me oooh oh |
