Song Description

A look back to the childhood dreams of growing up to be and/or do something important.

Lyrics

When Billy was growing up he said
I want to be superman
I'm gonna eat my spinach and be strong I
Wanna save the world

When Jenny was 3 years old she
Picked a bird fallen from the nest
She raised it till it could fly she said
I want to save the world

Chorus:
Where are you now, you childhood dreamers?
We need you to save us somehow
Throw the dust off of your dreams
And save the world

When I was in school I
Thought I'd be a scientist
Or maybe president or at least
I'd save the world

Oh how we mourn the loss of
Those school kid dreams
Of who we thought we'd be
When we thought we'd save the world

Bridge:
But we sit and wait
And watch the days go by us
But you know those dreams are
Still inside us
It's up to you, it's up to me it's up to us
Wooo oh oh oh
Come on, come on, wo oh oh let's save the world!

If we took the will of
All those school kid dreams
Dragged them from beneath the dirt oh
We could save the world

So look back to the days when
You were three feet tall
And do what you thought you would
When you thought you'd save the world

Chorus

When billy was growing up he said
I want to be superman
I'm gonna eat my spinach and be strong
I wanna save the world.
