What I Want To Be

When I grow up I want to be a king I’d like to be the boss of something Maybe a knight in shining armor Or like my Uncle, a wheat Farmer There are other things I’d like to be Things like a Captain in the Navy Maybe a pilot in the Air Force Or General of the Army of course It’s about time I make up my mind Time to get all my ducks in line Is it too late for the job I strive? I’ve held off til I’m seventy five
