When they were all in the parlour
I knew what to do
Even though I was young
I stole a dollar or two
I threw my coins in the pond at the foot of the statue

It's all what's on the inside
Is what you wanted to hear
I stole the star from your eye
I was always sincere
I need a star for a wish and it seems I am desperate

I dug around
through and through
It appears that human's have wishbones too
I'll find one soon

My first wish was a good one
For we ran across the beach
We screamed, go and stare
We screamed, no more wheelchairs
You ran faster than me
You ran faster than me

I waited for your reaction
You just stared into space
Something had you distracted
Such disgust on your face
As if my wish was a waste, a mistake or a gamble

You said, consider yourself
Cuz I am happy as hell
My brother you treat me well
I just don't need any help
I thought you'd wish for a kiss or a crown or a castle

I've thought this out
Through and through
You won't believe the hoops that we all jump through
It all comes true

My first wish was a good one
For we ran across the beach
We screamed, go and stare
We screamed, no more wheelchairs.
You ran faster than me
You ran faster than me

My next wish was a death wish
As morbid as it seems
To pull a man from the ground
Then have him turn you down
And say that it was up to me
He said now it was up to me

And then I asked to see the future
To see what I would be
I had pockets full of gold
But I was drowning out at sea
