King Missile - I Wish Lyrics
I Wish I had a story to tellI Wish I knew the story of the cardboard man,Or the Talking filmcanister, Or the Spoon that MovedI Wish I knew the one about the wise guruOr the honest LizardI wish I knew about the dog that dressed like a cat,Or the mule that walked like rockOr the tornado who swam like a statue of Carmen MirandaI Wish I knew all these stories or had the inclination to make them upI Wish I could sit on soft pillows and drink molten lavaI Wish I could make love to the skyI Wish I could eat the corn of Joy and SorrowI Wish the sky was green and my body was bright blueI Wish I could talk sideways and backwardsI Wish I could drive the tractor of Innocence and return the the life I neverknewI Wish I could drink chocolate champaigneI Wish I had that Fax NumberI Wish I nothing could mean something and that everbody could have everythingSome wishes come trueSome of this wishes will come trueOthers, are destined to become dreams deferred,Shriveling up like grapes with sun tans,But all is not lost,No, all is not lost, not yetI Wish I had 3 eyes, but of course, I have 3 eyesI have clavoyant paranoiaI have precogant disetenceI have many other ways of seeing at my disposalI have a garbage disposal, dinner plans and dog bisquetsI have many many options and a strong sense that freedom comes with inBut I shall never find itFreedom is lost, Failure is just around the corner and the only thing thatConsoles me is the sound of my voice, and the fact that I don't cut myselfShaving as I used too
