Onedayi`mgonnabesomebody — текст песни (The Time)

One day I`m gonna be somebody, one day I`m gonna be rich.
I`m gonna say my prayers and work real hard, so that I never have to dig a ditch.
The only way I`d work at a carwash, is if I owned the whole damn place.
But if gettin` to the top means washin` a car, I`d be scrubbin` with a smile on my face.

(chorus)
One day I`m gonna be somebody, gonna stand out in a crowd.
One day I`m gonna be somebody, gonna make somebody proud.

One day I`m gonna be a star, I`m gonna do whatever it takes.
Why should I starve when I could be elsewhere, makin` what the rich man makes.
If I should die before I`m rich, I pray the Lord my soul to keep.
But if I`m rich before I die, I wanna work cuz nothin` comes cheap.

(repeat chorus)

Somebody bring me a mirror so I can look at my cash.

We don`t like new wave!
