When I grow up I want to be myself I don't want to turn into everyone else Watching them crawl on the ceiling Receiving end of stealing When I grow up I want to be myself All of them looking at the same direction At a television set with no reception Watching it fill with static And turn into automatic When I grow up I want to be myself Just like they found you right where they left you Just like they'll leave you right where they found you Just how they'll leave you alone When I grow up I want to be myself I don't want to turn into everyone else Watching TV on the ceiling with automatic feelings When I grow up I want to be myself Just like they found you right where they left you Just like they'll leave you right where they found you Just how they'll leave you alone
