HIVE OPEN MIC WEEK 113 WHEN I GROW UP BY MATILDA

Remember all the beautiful moments
The first time
The excitement
The sad moments
The dissapointments
The tear
Remember the so great and cool idea lol
Remember the colours
How you made your own little world in your head
full of everything you loved
Remember the smell
The friendship
The first heartbreak
I remember how enthusiastic i was to do everything,and try out new things.
Growing up,i always thought adulthood would be so much fun that i could not wait to grow up.
Thought i could wake up whenever i like,do everything however i wanted,and just basically live
my life the way i wanted to........
I guess being a child is the stage where you dont have to worry about anything
else but the things you feel you want to do when you grow up.
Being a child is the stage you have to just live in your imagination

When I grow up
I will be tall enough to reach the branches
That I need to reach to climb the trees
You get to climb when you're grown up.
And when I grow up
I will be smart enough to answer all
The questions that you need to know
The answers to before you're grown up.
And when I grow up
I will eat sweets every day
On the way to work and I
Will go to bed late every night!
And I will wake up
When the sun comes up and I
Will watch cartoons until my eyes go square
And I won't care 'cause I'll be all grown up!
When I grow up!
When I grow up, when I grow up
(When I grow up)
I will be strong enough to carry all
The heavy things you have to haul
Around with you when you're a grown-up!
And when I grow up, when I grow up
(When I grow up)
I will be brave enough to fight the creatures
That you have to fight beneath the bed
Each night to be a grown-up!
And when I grow up
(When I grow up)
I will have treats every day.
And I'll play with things that Mum pretends
That Mum's don't think are fun.
And I will wake up
When the sun comes up and I
Will spend all day just lying in the sun
And I won't burn 'cause I'll be all grown-up!
When I grow up!
And when I grow up, when I grow up
I will be brave enough to fight the creatures
That you have to fight beneath the bed
Each night to be a grown-up
Just because you find that life's not fair, it
Doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it.
If you always take it on the chin and wear it
Nothing will change!
