What I want to be
I've never wanted to be a waiter
Never really liked to serve
Didn't want to be a teacher
To slow down the childrens' learning curve
Wouldn't want to be a fireman
Don't wanna get the dirt on my hands
Computers they're okay I guess
But I don't want to be in all that mess
And music keeps calling me
It's what I want to be
I want to be a singer
I want to find the melody
I'd like to be a writer
If I have that quality
I want to play this song
For all the world
Just wanna belong
Mmm and to be heard
Oh I'd hate to be an office clerk
'cause I'd surely feel like a jerk
All those reports - do I need to say more?
No that is not what I am for
I'll never be a social worker
No matter how much I admire her
I've got my own set of problems
Still waiting to be solved :)
And music keeps calling me
That's what I want to be
I want to be a singer
I want to find the melody
I'd like to be a writer
If I have that quality
I want to play this song
For all the world
Just wanna belong
Mmm and to be heard
I've got the world on the palm of my hand
Is it so hard to understand
I'll live a dream if I can write it
And re-write it... over and over again
And I want to be a singer
I want to find the melody
I'd like to be a writer
If I have that quality
I want to play this song
For all the world
Just wanna belong
And to be heard
