This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
When you were young enough
Doing all that fun kid stuff
Did you think of what you'd be?
Marco polo in the pool
Kickball games behind the school
Playing tag and hide 'n seek
When you grow up, what kind of boy will you be?
Oh, what will you be?
Drawing pictures with some chalk
Raindrops wash it from the walk
Summer days it never ends
Spin the bottle on the ground
Watch it turning round and round
Maybe he will be my friend
When you grow up, what kind of girl will you be?
Oh, what will you be?
Will you write a book or invent a machine?
Will you be an astronaut or will you sail the sea?
(What will I be when I grow up?) La la, la la, la la, la la
(What will I be when I grow up?) La la, la la, la la, la la la la
(What will I be when I grow up?) La la, la la, la la, la la
(What will I be when I grow up?) La la, la la, la la, la
When you grow up, what kind of person will you be?
Oh the things you'll be happy
Doing all that fun kid stuff
Did you think of what you'd be?
Marco polo in the pool
Kickball games behind the school
Playing tag and hide 'n seek
When you grow up, what kind of boy will you be?
Oh, what will you be?
Drawing pictures with some chalk
Raindrops wash it from the walk
Summer days it never ends
Spin the bottle on the ground
Watch it turning round and round
Maybe he will be my friend
When you grow up, what kind of girl will you be?
Oh, what will you be?
Will you write a book or invent a machine?
Will you be an astronaut or will you sail the sea?
(What will I be when I grow up?) La la, la la, la la, la la
(What will I be when I grow up?) La la, la la, la la, la la la la
(What will I be when I grow up?) La la, la la, la la, la la
(What will I be when I grow up?) La la, la la, la la, la
When you grow up, what kind of person will you be?
Oh the things you'll be happy
