When I Was Younger

When I was younger I told my mother "I say, one day I'm gonna make you proud" Now that I'm older It's so much harder To say those words out loud You're growing taller A little smarter And one day you're gonna leave home Oh, will you look like your mother's father Oh, when you are fully grown? Ooh-ooh Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Ooh-ooh When I was younger, I asked my father "Why are we so human?" Now that I'm older I think I figured it out We're just doing what we can Ooh-ooh Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Ooh-ooh 'Cause I won't, I won't let you down I won't let you, I won't I won't let you down Oh now I won't, I won't let you down I won't let you, I won't I won't let you down When I was younger, I told my mother "I say, one day I'm gonna make you proud"
