Shane Filan - When I Grow Up Lyrics
When I grow up
I will be tall enough to reach the branches
That I need to reach to climb the trees
You get too climb when you're grown up
I will be smart enough to answer all the questions that you need to know the answers to
Before you're grown up
And when I grow up
I will eat sweets everyday
On the way to work, and I
Will go to bed late every night
And I will wake up
When the sun comes up, and I
And I won't care 'cause I'll be all grown up
When I grow up
When I grow up
When I grow up
(When I grow up)
I will be strong enough to carry all
The heavy things you have to haul around
With you when you're a grown up
And when I grow up
When I grow up
(When I grow up)
I will be brave enough to fight the creatures that you have to fight beneath the bed
Each night to be a grown up
And when I grow up
(When I grow up)
I will have treats everyday
And I'll play with things that mom pretends that mom's don't think are fun
And I will wake up
(And I will wake up)
When the sun comes up, and I
Will spend all day just lying in the sun
And I won't burn 'cause I'll be all grown up
When I grow up
[Shane:]
When I grow up
I will be brave enough to fight the creatures that you have to fight beneath the bed
Each night to be a grown up
When I grow up
[Grace:]
Just because you find that life's not fair, it
Doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it
If you always take your time to chin and wait
Nothing will change
(When I grow up)
Just because I find myself in this story
It doesn't mean that everything is written for me
If I think the ending is fixed already
I might as well be saying
"I think that it's OK"
And that's not right
When I grow up
When I grow up
(When I grow up)
I will be strong enough to carry all the heavy things you have to haul around
With you when you're a grown up
And when I grow up
When I grow up
(When I grow up)
I will be brave enough to fight the creatures
That you have to fight beneath the bed
Each night to be a grown up
And when I grow up
I will have treats everyday
And I'll play with things that mom pretends that moms don't think are fun
And I will wake up
When the sun comes up, and I
Will spend all day just lying in the sun
And I won't burn 'cause I'll be all grown up
When I grow up

I hate to say this, but I was in shrek with Grace and Idc about your opinion but she wasn’t the best person. Nice singer, actor, and dancer, but when it came to her personality, she wasn’t very nice.
Shane filan...
Ahh a few of the girl singers are in my school
I’m really like this Grace’s song...
It always encouraged me!
I bought this song, and I listen to it in train. Thank you Grace!
From Japanese fan of you!🌈✨
so touched with the kids in the hospital
AMEN!!! When I grow up I will obey mommy and daddy so that every heavy things will light for me to carry and those creatures will be my friend, because I obey my parent's and my HEAVENLY FATHER'S will take care of everything for me because HE SAYS SO, if I just obey my parent's.
3:08 to 3:18 made me cry because the baby is so happy with the man!

Pause it at 4..22
OMG SHANE, you make me say wow!! what a great performance Shane
OH MY GOD SHANE FILAN! 😍
Grace Lee was on the tv show Suprise Suprise, and her all time dream was to preform with the cast of Matilda: The Musical. And she ended up preforming with them on the Suprise Suprise stage! And after that, she has become viral and she starred in this one to by the looks of it! Haha!
she has also recently joined Spirit Young Performers Company
I was in Shrek the musical with her
Grace is such an amazing singer. It's so unfortunate that she wouldn't be able to be Matilda on west end: I would have loved to see her sing
Great song , great performance , touching video and good cause.
kyle james shane burns
Who's the girl in yellow?
Bless them
I 💖 that song it is so heartwarming
#SAVE all the children especily steven
shane is seriously an inspiration! i just love him! i am so glad i was boring in the 90s when westlife where a band for 14 years.. they were amazing and i loved them so much!
Grace was on surprise surprise! Talented girl!!
This brought me to tears
l am growing to be in show
How can people not like this
Naomi Ford it was probably Peter Pan 😉
Marsha Marsha Marsha Marsha marsh in the matilda
Nice song and lovely shane.
How have I never seen this before!?
Why can't these people be the real cast they are so good !!
Brillannt song but your man Shane is lip syncing. If you look more closely you will see
I'm glad you liked the song, but I can assure you, as the producer, that Shane sang live and any issues that you see with synchronisation between the video and audio are due to a number of factors all inherent in streaming video. The song was recorded live, totally live, from the sixteen piece orchestra, the children's ensemble, the adult choir, the two thousand voices in the audience to Grace Lee and Shane Filan. It was one take during a three hour programme of live music celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of the Association of Irish Musical Societies.
Shane amazing as always!!
Great song. Well done everybody. Shared to my FB page. Hope you get the Christmas number 1.
Absolutely beautiful! Congrats to all involved. Amazing!

great 😁😄
Shane is perfect !
I watched and bought. As a Tim Minchin Fan, a choral director of students who loved singing “When I Grow Up”, and most importantly, the father of a neuroblastoma survivor, I had myself a good cry tonight. Good luck and thank you.
So glad to hear your son/daughter is a survivor! One very strong child you have there!
Brilliant. Made me cry...
aww this is amazing! grace would of been great potential of being matilda in west end!
+Amber Cloyd yes!
+Marcus Gomez she is incredible she should totally be Matilda!
+Amber Cloyd she can't be a Matilda due to her heart condition 😪
+Jcits yes I understand that but despite the heart condition
+Jcits why?
It brought a tear to my eyes.. so beautiful! how can someone dislike this?
+federer samir I think that must've been Peter Pan disliking the song; I mean, he didn't want to grow up ;)
+kiwijem lol.. Makes sense 😂😂
+kiwijem he has 15 accounts
This is so Beautiful brought a tear to my eye ♥
That was awesome. Can't understand why someone would give it a thumbs down though
+tracy bracken Obviously that was Peter Pan! ;)
Beautiful song for an extremely worthy cause. Please buy a copy to support two wonderful charities!!!!!
Beautiful! Congratulations all on such a brilliant performance, especially Grace, you are such a talented and wonderful girl, keep shining xx
