I wish.
I wish I were a fashion doll,
with plastic head and feet.
I wouldn’t have to wash my clothes
nor pillow sheet.
I would never get a tummy ache
or sniffles in my nose,
I would always spend entire day
modelling pretty clothes.
I would never trip on the road ,
Fall and skin my knees.
I would never have to cough , shiver or sneeze!
I would have a car and a private swimming pool
Instead of piles of homework, that I do for school.
I would never strain a muscle while playing a cricket game,
No matter how much time passes by, i still look the same.
I would never let my hair go freak,
Or mop up a great big spill from a washing machine leak,
Or broom or brush or wipe or wax
Or dig down deep in my tote bag to get some sales tax
Or have to get up early when I really want to sleep,
Or negotiate a puddle when rain makes water deep.
I would smile all day and never have a care
With perfect skin, perfect smile and perfect hair.
There’s just one thing that would ever make me frown
When a little girl would grab my foot and hold me upside down!
