In a few examples she lists, she wants to be kind ("sweet"), attractive ("hot"), popular ("royal", "cool"), and doesn't want to be held down by responsibility ("free"). She wants to be everything except herself. She may not even know if the not as positive qualities like "mean", "scary", and "old" won't be taken so well- she wants to be everything in order for people to notice and love her. What would be the girl in this song may just not know what the people around her find to be good qualities in a person, so she wants to be everything in order to please them, in order to make friends. They yearn to be something else- something or someone the people around them will accept and like. A typical time or setting is around other people, especially in school if they aren't a very popular person. The song's name in itself may explain a child's wants or, this reason not being as happy, a lack of satisfaction in who they are.

As sly as a fox, as strong as an ox As fast as a hare, as brave as a bear As free as a bird, as neat as a word As quiet as a mouse, as big as a house All I wanna be, all I wanna be, oh All I wanna be is everything As mean as a wolf, as sharp as a tooth As deep as a bite, as dark as the night As sweet as a song, as right as a wrong As long as a road, as ugly as a toad As pretty as a picture hanging from a fixture Strong like a family, strong as I wanna be Bright as day, as light as play As hard as nails, as grand as a whale All I wanna be oh, all I wanna be, oh All I wanna be is everything Everything at once Everything at once, oh Everything at once As warm as the sun, as silly as fun As cool as a tree, as scary as the sea As hot as fire, cold as ice Sweet as sugar and everything nice As old as time, as straight as a line As royal as a queen, as buzzed as a bee As stealth as a tiger, smooth as a glider Pure as a melody, pure as I wanna be All I wanna be oh, all I wanna be, oh All I wanna be is everything Everything at once
