Thieftastic
I
When I was a little kid
my mother used to say
What do you want to be when you grow up
a firefighter or a cop?
And I didn't know
I didn't know what I wanted to be
II
I wanted to be a soldier
a baseball player or a pilot
Or maybe a star
In a Rock'n'Roll band
but I didn't know
Yet what I wanted to be
III
At 8 years old
I told my mom
I know what I want to be
look over there...
I want to be
I want to be
Like that man over there
IV
The one with 7 cars
5 men who take care of him
private secretary
satellite dish and pool
- Tell me mom, tell me
What does he do for a living- (4 times)
V
He travels all year
in a private plane
And shows off to everyone
on TV and on the radio
- Tell me mom,
What does he carry in that briefcase?
VI
My surprised mother
didn't want to answer me
I tugged at her apron
And I asked her again
- Tell me mom, tell me
What does he do for a living- ...and I found out
Chorus I
Mom, I want to be (5 times)
a thieftastic (repeat)
VII
At twelve years old I could understand
The kind of person
I wanted to be
That's why mom...
forgive me, excuse me!
VIII
I want to work
And sweat for what I earn
I want to be like my father
poor but honest
But I never want to be
A thieftastic...no, no, no!
Chorus II
Mom, I don't want to be (5 times)
a thieftastic (repeat)
I don't want to be a thieftastic! No!
