When I Am Young, I Shall Stick Out My Tongue Once Again

When I am young I shall stick out my tongue Stick out my tongue once again ... When I am ten I shall teach Zen Now and then When I am eight I shall emigrate At eight, just you wait When I am six I'll use chopsticks Just for kicks When I am four I'll own a Labrador Who eats off our floor When I am two I'll master kung fu When I am but two When I am young I shall stick out my tongue Stick out my tongue once again ...
