One day I'm gonna be somebody
One day I'm gonna be rich
I'm gonna say my prayers and work real hard
So that I never have to dig a ditch
The only way I'd work at a car wash
Is if I owned the whole damn place
But if gettin' to the top means washin' a car
I'd be scrubbin' with a smile on my face
One day I'm gonna be somebody
Gonna stand out in a crowd
One day I'm gonna be somebody
Gonna make somebody proud
One day I'm gonna be somebody
Gonna stand out in a crowd
One day I'm gonna be somebody
Gonna make somebody proud
One day I'm gonna be a star
I'm gonna do whatever it takes
Why should I starve when I could be elsewhere
Makin' what the rich man makes
If I should die before I'm rich
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
But if I'm rich before I die
I wanna work 'cuz nothin' comes cheap
One day I'm gonna be somebody
Gonna stand out in a crowd
One day I'm gonna be somebody
Gonna make somebody proud
One day I'm gonna be somebody
Gonna stand out in a crowd
One day I'm gonna be somebody
Gonna make somebody proud
Somebody bring me a mirror
So I can look at my cash
Somebody bring me a mirror
So I can look at my cash
We don't like new wave!
