I can be

When I am all grown up

There's lots that I can be

A million different choices

And the choice is up to me

 

I can be a fireman

And drive a truck all painted red

I can work inside a kitchen

And make sure that folks get fed

 

I can be a sailor

And sail from sea to sea

I have a million different choices

And the choice is up to me

 

I can be a teacher,

and teach children to write

Or I can be a singer

And sing on stage each night

 

A footballer, a builder

or a worker in a zoo

It's up to me exactly what

job that I will do

 

A dancer, or a dentist

A scientist or vet

It's up to me and no one else

What kind of job I'll get

 

A painter, or an acrobat

A lifeguard on the beach

I can be an astronaut

And to the stars I'll reach

 

I can be most anything

There's lot's that I can be

There's so much for me out there

The choice is up to me

 

I can drive a race car

Let my imagination soar

This is just a short list

There's a million, million more

 

I can be most anything

There's a lot out there for me

For I am just beginning

And there's lots that I can be

 

An astronaut, a soldier
