"J-O-B" lyrics
Mr. Greg & Cass McCombs Lyrics
When I grow up I'll have a J-O-B
A job, a job
That's fun for me
One that suits my personality
With a lot of responsibility
Like an animal doctor: a veterinarian
A park ranger, a humanitarian
There's thousands of jobs
It's a long, long list
Perhaps I'll be a rocket scientist
I wanna be a poet or a train conductor
Or ride the waves like a surf instructor
There's thousands of jobs
It's a long, long list
Perhaps I'll be an archeologist
When I grow up I'll have a J-O-B
A job, a job
That's fun for me
One that suits my personality
With a lot of responsibility
Like a beekeeper, just watch out for the stinger
The president, or an opera singer
There's thousands of jobs
It's a long, long list
Perhaps I'll be a great geologist
I'll be a schoolteacher of Spanish or math
Or a zookeeper with chimps and giraffes
There's thousands of jobs
It's a long, long list
Perhaps I'll be a meteorologist
Or a carpenter with a hammer and nails
Or a gardener hanging out with the snails
There's thousands of jobs
It's a long, long list
What would you be if you had to pick?
A job, a job
That's fun for me
One that suits my personality
With a lot of responsibility
Like an animal doctor: a veterinarian
A park ranger, a humanitarian
There's thousands of jobs
It's a long, long list
Perhaps I'll be a rocket scientist
I wanna be a poet or a train conductor
Or ride the waves like a surf instructor
There's thousands of jobs
It's a long, long list
Perhaps I'll be an archeologist
When I grow up I'll have a J-O-B
A job, a job
That's fun for me
One that suits my personality
With a lot of responsibility
Like a beekeeper, just watch out for the stinger
The president, or an opera singer
There's thousands of jobs
It's a long, long list
Perhaps I'll be a great geologist
I'll be a schoolteacher of Spanish or math
Or a zookeeper with chimps and giraffes
There's thousands of jobs
It's a long, long list
Perhaps I'll be a meteorologist
Or a carpenter with a hammer and nails
Or a gardener hanging out with the snails
There's thousands of jobs
It's a long, long list
What would you be if you had to pick?
