I wanna be big like the movie stars
I wanna be rich, and drive fancy cars
I'd love to have maids
And people who persuade other people my coffee ain't right
I wanna be larger than life
I wanna be handsome or pretty
I want a key to the city
So I can visit the stores while the shop owners snore away at night
I wanna be bright
Oh I wanna be bright
I wanna be bright like stars in the sky
As bright as the spotlight
That shines to light my way
I want it every day
I wanna be bright like the brightest white
And even in the darkest night
You'll see me shining there
Oh everywhere I wanna be bright
I want a house the size of a football field, heh
I want a chrome top, with matching wheels
I dream of all I'd make
Think of all the mistakes the tabloids would reveal
At least I'd be real, hey
Everyday will be like a movie scene
Picture my face, on the silver screen
I wanna leave 'em breathless with the best that I can do
And I wanna thank my mom, my dad, my sister, and the good Lord too
I wanna be bright like stars in the sky
As bright as the spotlight
That shines to light my way
I want it every day
I wanna be bright like the brightest white
And even in the darkest night
You'll see me shining there
Oh everywhere I wanna be bright
I'll talk about love and patience
Shape our generation
Maybe change the nation
Oh it'll be out of sight
I wanna be bright like the stars
I wanna shine so far
Illuminate the night
Oh everywhere I wanna be
Bright
