Onedayi'mgonnabesomebody Lyrics

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 2 dig a ditch 
The only way I'd work at a carwash 
Is if I owned the whole damn place 
But if gettin' 2 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 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 2 keep 
But if I'm rich before I die 
I wanna work cuz nothin' comes cheap 

CHORUS 

Somebody bring me a mirror so I can look at my cash 
(One day I'm gonna be somebody) 
Somebody bring me a mirror so I can look at my cash 
(One day I'm gonna be somebody) 

We don't like new wave! {sarcastic laughter}
