Songtexte I Wish - Fresh Beat MCs

Hey, this is the radio station WSKE
We're taking calls on the wish line
Making your wacky wishes come true
Hello?

I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller
I wish I had a girl that looked good, I would call her
I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
And a six-four partner

I wish I was like six feet nine so I could get with Leal
'Cause she don't know me but, yo, she's really fine
You know I see her all the time everywhere I go
And even here in dreams I can't seem to get her off my mind
'Cause I know she's livin' fat
Her boyfriend's tall, he plays ball
So how am I gonna compete with that?
'Cause when it comes to playin' basketball
I'm always last to be picked, and then some cases never picked at all
So I just lean against the wall
Or sit up in the bleachers with the rest of
The girls who came to watch the handball
Dang, yo, I never understood black
Why all the kids get the fly girls and I get the hood rats?
I tell 'em skat, skittles, skibibbles
Got with the vibes in the hospital for talkin' that mess
I confess it's a sham when you're livin' in a city
That's the size of a box and nobody knows your name
I'm glad I came to my senses like quick wick
A sick sick to the stomach, over-thought my thoughts
Me and her together, right?
So when I asked her out, she said she wasn't my type

I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller
I wish I had a girl that looked good, I would call her
I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
And a six-four partner
I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller
I wish I had a girl that looked good, I would call her
I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
And a six-four partner

I wish I had a brand new car, so far I got this hatchback
And everywhere I go I gets laughed at
And when I'm in my car, I'm laid back
I got an eight-track and spare tire in the back seat but that's flat
You wanna know what's really wack?
So I can never get a date and that's the pick of that
I heard the prom night was a bomb night
With a hood rat and a ho tight
And a big bro and a figaro
When I'm in my car, I can't even get a hello, well
So many people wanna cruise Crenshaw on Sunday
One day I'm gonna have to get in my car and go
You know I take the one straight off the 105
Get off at Crenshaw, tell my homies not to fight
'Cause it's hard to survive when you're livin' in a concrete jungle
Where the girls keep passin' by
She looks fly, she looks fly
Make me say, "My, my, my"

I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller
I wish I had a girl that looked good, I would call her
I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
And a six-four partner
I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller
I wish I had a girl that looked good, I would call her
I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
And a six-four partner

I wish I was a little bit taller (I wish I was a little bit taller)
I wish I was a baller (I wish I was a baller)
I wish I was a little bit taller
I wish I was a little bit taller, y'all)
I wish I was a baller (I wish I was a baller)
I wish I was a little bit taller (I wish I was a little bit taller)
I wish I was a baller (I wish I was a baller)
I wish I was a little bit taller
I wish I was a little bit taller, y'all)
I wish I was a baller (Yeah)

Hey, I wish I had my way
'Cause every day would be a Friday
You could even speed on the highway
I would play ghetto games, name my kids ghetto names
Little Kid, Big Al, and Wang
You know that's sorta real, so if you're down on your luck
You should know how I feel
'Cause if you're throwin' me around
See, I go simple, I go easy, I go Greyhound
Hey, look you, what's that sound?
Everybody look, what's goin' down?
Ah, yes, ain't that fresh?
Everybody wants to get down like that

I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller
I wish I had a girl that looked good, I would call her
I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
And a six-four partner
I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller
I wish I had a girl that looked good, I would call her
I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
And a six-four partner
