i wanna be a fireman

written as flobo

when i grow up i wanna be a fireman
teacher thinks i like the color red
she don't get my meaning
i wanna let my soul burn
cause i got dance in my step
i got a knack fo scat
i got a bebop ba shoo shoo shoo
drop that golden sun into my hat
you know i got a need to move
and i wanna shine when i do
i want my horn to smoke
i wanna burn every note into the air
so that when the wind blows through
you can hear every one
it's my desire understand
i wanna be a fireman

This is sweet. I think you captured what a little child wants very well. Great poem.
