When I Grow Up

When I grow up
      I wanna be a cowgirl
           That way I can lasso your heart
                      and keep it forever.

When I grow up
        I wanna be a police-woman
              And arrest you and keep you
                          for myself.

When I grow up  
         I wanna be a scientist
               That discovers a love potion
                     that you will drink everyday.

When I grow up
         I wanna be a shuttle commander
                And travel to unknown planets
                       and claim them for you.

When I grow up
            I wanna be a botanist
                 So I can make a flower hybrid
                      and name it for you.

When I grow up
             I wanna........

                  Oh, hell,
                        who am I kidding?
                                   I'm already 30,



                            I don't wanna grow up

                                    anymore

                                          without you.
