I wish I was a neutron bomb
for once I could go off
I wish I was a sacrifice
but somehow still lived on

I wish I was a sentimental ornament
you hung on The Christmas tree
I wish I was the star
that went on top

I wish I was the evidence
I wish I was the grounds
For 50 million hands upraised
and open toward the sky

I wish I was a sailor
with someone who waited for me
I wish I was as fortunate
as fortunate as me

I wish I was a messenger
and all the news was good
I wish I was the full moon
shining off a Camaro's hood

I wish I was an alien
at home behind the sun
I wish I was the souvenir
you kept your house key on

I wish I was the pedal brake
that you depended on
I wish I was the verb 'to trust'
and never let you down

I wish I was a radio song
the one that you turned up
I wish, I wish
