[ Featuring the Raindrops ]
Every single day I get older by a day just like everybody else in the world
I'm gonna reach up and turn on the light
Have a party 'til late at night
Sleep like Snow White. When I'm older
Learn a song on the saxophone
Tie my shoes up on my own
Find my way home. When I'm older
When I'm older. When I'm older. When I'm older. These things I will do
When I'm older. When I'm older. When I'm older. You'll be older too
I'm gonna climb a mountain. Fly a plane
Cross the ocean and live in Spain
Have a healthy brain. When I'm older
Sing. Laugh. Dance. Smile. Every day
Get my grandkids round to play
Have hair that's grey. When I'm older
When I'm older. When I'm older. When I'm older. My dreams will come true
When I'm older. When I'm older. When I'm older. You'll be older too
And one day I'll be 10 years old. And soon I'll be 15
And when I'm 20, and 25 and 30, I'll write songs about the things I've seen
I'm gonna go to work with my robot friends
Take a trip round the moon again
Climb up Big Ben. When I'm older
Be friends with everyone
Get my energy from the sun
Feel like I'm young. When I'm older
I'm gonna sleep out under the stars
Own a hundred-and-one guitars
Sing 'Life on Mars'. When I'm older
Have a good time all the time
Play the dame in a pantomime
Write songs that rhyme. When I'm older
Play music all night long
Dance to music all night long
Keep singing my song, when I'm older
Ba. Ba. Baaa. Da-n-daa
Ba. Ba. Baaa. Da-n-daa
Ba-n-da-n-daa
When I'm older
Ba. Ba. Baaa. Da-n-daa
Ba. Ba. Baaa. Da-n-daa
Ba-n-da-n-daa
When I'm older
