Do What Makes You Happy

My parents once asked me When you grow up What would you like to be? An actor I said I use to dream of it Whist I lay in bed They would say It doesn't matter What you want to be As long as it makes you happy My teacher once asked me When you are a grown man What would you like to be? I would like to be an engineer I liked the idea of building things My dream was clear And then he would say It doesn't matter What you want to do As long as it pleases you My parents later asked me When you grow up What would you like to become? I want to be an astronaut And fly in space And all they would say is As long as it puts a smile on your face Because you see It doesn't matter what you want to be As long as it makes YOU happy.
