Growing Up (Part II)
[GUSSIE]
Life is knowing what you want, darling
That's the thing you have to know
You'll get everything you want, darling
Have a little patience
Climbing mountains can be slow, darling
Take it easy as you climb
I'd say you're a winner
Also a beginner—
One step at a time
Growing up
It's what they call growing up
It's when we're all starting out
And starting to sway
Growing up
You hate the delay
But after today
You'll be on your way
So whadda you say—?
