Know what I want?
What? What?
What do I want?
Ever since I was a little girl
There's only been one thing I want
I want,
I want what every little redblooded girl in America could want
I want,
I want what I have wanted from the first day I learned how to want
I wanna be a Rockette
I wanna dance until dawn
I wanna be a Rockette
That's what my heart is set upon
I wanna be a Rockette
I wanna hear the crowd roar
I wanna feel the magic when they scream for more
And more and more and more and
I never wanted to be somebody's wife
A suburban life seems a pity
I never wanted to be a movie star
I always wanted to be a dancer at Radio City
I wanna be a Rockette
And it's no surprise
I wanna be a Rockette
Oh how my foot is gonna rise
I wanna be a Rockette
That's one thing I know
And when I'm a Rockette
I'll never miss one show
I never wanted to be a broadway star
Being famous has too many duties
I never wanted to be a ballet star
I always wanted to be
One of those dazzling dancing beauties
I always remember when mama brought me to new york
And I first saw those girls up on that stage
There was magic everywhere
Look at them mama I said
One of these days your little girl's gonna be up there
I'm gonna be a Rockette
Let me out on that stage
I'm gonna be a Rockette
They are the greatest dancers of our age
I'm gonna be a Rockette
I'm gonna hear the crowd scream
I'm gonna know the feeling of getting my dream
And that is my dream
To know how it feels,
To be someone who’s free
To kick up her heels
That's what I was meant to be
You gotta take me
ME!
(mmm... and now that it took me a million years to determine the lyrics, i'm sure it'll take a million more to actually find the song)
