Verse 1 When I've had enough of doing as I'm told,
I can't see any benefit
In not being very old.
It seems a million years until I reach eighteen,
The age when I can no longer
Be made to eat my greens.
And I can't wait to live on coke and pizza,
But I'm being cared for now, so I think I'll take it...
Chorus One day at a time,
There's no rush to see tomorrow.
I know the future is mine,
So I'm gonna live it one day at a time.
Verse 2 As I look around at older boys and girls,
I long to taste their freedom,
I want to know the grown-up world.
I want to stay up late drinking cups of tea,
And maybe watch something that's cooler
Than CBBC.
And I can't wait to widen my horizon,
But I'm feeling safe right now, so I think I'll take it...
Chorus One day at a time......
Verse 3 When I think about how the world is treating me,
Some things I don't understand,
While some are plain to see.
And though it seems my life has only just begun,
In many ways I've grown so much,
So many things I've done.
And I can't wait to see what's round the corner,
But I love where I am right now, so I think I'll take it...
Chorus One day at a time......
Repeat Chorus
