Nine years old, took a rocket to the moon
In a cardboard box, told 'em, "I'ma see you soon"
I'm onto bigger, onto better
Snap a picture, hit the clicker
I'll be on the television
Nineteen years old, didn't get no sleep
Had a spiral notebook and a pocket full of dreams
Onto bigger, onto better
Ain't a quitter under pressure
Making moves like Bobby Fischer
I could be someone
When I grow up
I'm gonna be a big deal
Be a big shot
Don't think too small, don't put me in a box
I'm a big deal, I'm a big shot
Make 'em stop and say
I'm gonna be a big deal
Be a big shot
Don't think too small, don't put me in a box
Doubt me? Just sit back and watch
Make 'em stop and say
Try to stay loose, but your chest gets tight
Call a white flag truce, you could waive one tonight
But you give it another minute
'Cause you're that one in a million
Longshot singin'
I could be someone
When I grow up
I'm gonna be a big deal
Be a big shot
Don't think too small, don't put me in a box
I'm a big deal, I'm a big shot
Make 'em stop and say
I'm gonna be a big deal
Be a big shot
Don't think too small, don't put me in a box
Doubt me? Just sit back and watch
Make 'em stop and say
I've got one, two, three more lines on my face than I did
And I wish that I could go back and talk to that kid
Say, "You're gonna be a big deal
Be a big shot
Don't think too small, let 'em put you in a box
You're a big deal, you're a big shot"
Make 'em stop and say
I'm gonna be a big deal
Be a big shot
Don't think too small, don't put me in a box
I'm a big deal, I'm a big shot
Make 'em stop and say
I'm gonna be a big deal
Be a big shot
Don't think too small, don't put me in a box
Doubt me? Just sit back and watch
Make 'em stop and say
