lyrics

I hope when I grow up the world is safe and clean
I hope when I grow up the world is free to be
I hope when I grow up we live the life we find
I hope when I grow up we understand what it
means to be kind
The future will be bright and happy
We’ll work to make this world a safer a place
For our children’s sake we’ve got to
make this world a better place
For our children’s sake we’ve got to
make this world a better place
I hope when I grow up the world is safe and clean
I hope when I grow up the world is free to be
I hope when I grow up we live the life we find
I hope when I grow up we understand
what it means to be kind
The future will be bright and happy
We’ll work to make this world a safer a place
For our children’s sake we’ve got to make this
world a better place
For our children’s sake we’ve got to make this
world a better place
I see myself in 20 years solid
Sitting on the porch with my kids
Watching all the cars drive by solid
And playing hide and seek while I just sit
I see myself in 40 years solid
With my grandkids running all around the place
Spoiling them with chocolate chip cookies
And wishing and wishing
That the future will be bright and happy
We’ll work to make this world a safer a place
For our children’s sake we’ve got to make this
world a better place
For our children’s sake we’ve got to make this
world a better place

Fun and funny music for kids that you won't mind playing over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over again. We write music for and with children in the “lost” years of children’s music: ages 6 to 12.
