Lyrics[]

Perry:
Now I've got a confession
When I was young I wanted attention
And I promised myself that I'd do anything
Anything at all for them to notice me

Gauri:
But I ain't complaining
We all wanna be famous
So go ahead and say what you wanna say

Perry and Gauri with the Cheerios:
You don't know what it's like to be nameless
Want them to know what your name is
'Cause see when I was younger I would say

Perry:
When I grow up, I wanna be famous
I wanna be a star, I wanna be in movies

Gauri:
When I grow up, I wanna see the world
Drive nice cars, I wanna have groupies

Perry and Gauri with the Cheerios:
When I grow up, be on TV
People know me, be on magazines
When I grow up, fresh and clean
Number one chick when I step out on the scene

Gauri:
But be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it
You just might get it
You just might get it

Perry with Gauri:
But be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it
You just might get it
You just might get it

Gauri with Perry:
They used to tell me I was silly
Until I popped up on the TV
I always wanted to be a superstar
And knew that singing songs would get me this far

Perry with the Cheerios:
But I ain't complaining
We all wanna be famous
So go ahead and say what you wanna say

Perry and Gauri:
You don't know what it's like to be nameless
Want them to know what your name is
'Cause see, when I was younger I would say

Gauri with Perry:
When I grow up, I wanna be famous
I wanna be a star, I wanna be in movies
When I grow up, I wanna see the world
Drive nice cars, I wanna have groupies

Perry with the Cheerios:
When I grow up, be on TV
People know me, be on magazines
When I grow up, fresh and clean
Number one chick when I step out on the scene

Gauri with the Cheerios:
But be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it
You just might get it
You just might get it

Perry and Gauri:
But be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it
You just might get it
You just might get it

Perry:
I see them staring at me
Ooh I'm a trendsetter
Yes this is true 'cause what I do
No one can do it better
You can talk about me
'Cause I'm a hot topic
I see you watching me, watching me
And I know you want it

Gauri:
When I grow up, I wanna be famous
I wanna be a star, I wanna be in movies
When I grow up, I wanna see the world
Drive nice cars, I wanna have groupies
When I grow up, be on TV
People know me, be on magazines
When I grow up, fresh and clean
Number one chick when I step out on the scene

Perry:
But be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it
You just might get it
You just might get it
But be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it
You just might get it
You just might get it

Gauri:
When I grow up, I wanna be famous
I wanna be a star, I wanna be in movies
When I grow up, I wanna see the world
Drive nice cars, I wanna have groupies
When I grow up, be on TV
People know me, be on magazines
When I grow up, fresh and clean
Number one chick when I step out on the scene
When I step out on the scene

Perry with Gauri:
But be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it
You just might get it
You just might get it

Gauri with Perry:
But be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it
You just might get it

Gauri, Perry and the Cheerios:
