Starting back to School today
gotta learn all that I can.
Would like to be a Doctor
are maybe a lawyer if I can.

Maybe I'll be a Carpenter
I could build my own house.
Are a job with the computer
and push around a mouse.

Could be a Bricklayer you know
that sounds like lots of fun.
We could build tall buildings
that would reach up to the Sun.

This takes some heavy thinking
trying to figure out what to be.
maybe wait tell I'm grown up
and then we'll have to see.

But today i'll be going to recess
and i'll be playing once again.
have time to think about it more
for on my Birthday i'll be Ten.
