Lyrics[]
When I grow up,
don't be a doctor,
a lawyer or a cop.
all I want to be
is an astronaut.
Why can’t you see?
It’s the only thing I wanna be.
(Suit and tie is not for me.)
It’s my destiny to be (To be)
An astronaut.
Astronaut,
Wanna be an astronaut.
An astronaut,
Wanna be an astronaut.
Astronaut
Wanna be an astronaut.
An astronaut.
Why can't you understand?
I wanna take command
Of a spaceship.
Mom and Dad,
You gave me everything you never had,
But all I want to be,
My lifelong dream,
All I want to be is an
Astronaut.
Wanna be an astronaut.
An astronaut,
Wanna be an astronaut.
Astronaut,
Wanna be an astronaut.
An astronaut,
Wanna be an astronaut.
Astronaut,
Wanna be an astronaut.
An astronaut,
Wanna be an astronaut.
Astronaut,
Wanna be an astronaut.
An astronaut.
