If Wishes Were Fishes |
| I wish for no more wars |
| and silence of guns |
| for all your troubles to be little ones |
| for every child in the world — eat their fill |
| the guardian angel on the window sill |
| I wish for the wealth to be spread around |
| every soul when they pass to be heaven bound |
| and after I’d wished for all that crap I’d seen |
| maybe I could wish a thing or two for me |
| I wish my neighbor would choke on his yappy dog |
| wish I could pick my relatives from a catalog |
| the hot girl next door would tan wearing nothing but a smile |
| Howdee neighbor! |
| Wish I could get that knighthood from the queen |
| I wish folks would quit calling me Rick Springsteen |
| I wish the IRS would permanently misplace my file |
| I wish the starter in my damn Corvette would work |
| I wish I’d never seen Miley Cyrus twerk |
| Everybody seems to real and I just feel like a fraud |
| I wish that we were all equal in the eyes of God |
| If wishes were fishes I wouldn’t smell too sweet |
| There’d be a million dead fish all around my feet |
| I wish and I wish to make my life complete |
| I keep drinking from my wishin' cup |
| But real life steps in to f… it up |
| If wishes were fishes |
| I wish every God damn body would learn to drive and stop cutting me off on |
| Interstate 5 |
| I wish Scarlett Johansson would give me a call… |
| I wish money flowed like the falls at Niagara |
| I wish I’d stop getting e-mails with cheap Viagara |
| I wish there was someway, somehow I could have it all |
| I wish I was 21 again |
| let the good times roll |
| my only worry back then was «does she have birth control?» |
| I’m not a doctor but yeah I played one on TV |
| Dr. Noah Drake |
| and I’d be happy to take a look for free |
| If wishes were fishes we wouldn’t smell too good |
| there’d be a bunch of dead fish around the neighborhood |
| I’m not the only one who wishes cause this is Hollywood, where all your freaky |
| shit comes true |
| and maybe a wish or two |
| Wish every politician wasn’t a self-serving dick |
| Wish I hadn’t googled Anthony Weiner’s dick |
| Was our government hit with a stupid stick? |
| I wish honest Abe Lincoln was still our president |
| But I’d settle for Jesus or Clark Kent |
| If wishes were fishes the whole world would eat |
| but we’d all be sick of fish by the second week |
| I got a sneakin suspicion I’m not the only freak |
| who’s wishes for blind dumb luck and got nothin here |
| What the f… |
