If I Had One Wish

 

If I had one wish
one single little wish
I would wish for ten more wishes
but what if you
thought that’s unfair
what then would I do
besides pull out all my hair
well alright then
I will play fair
just to get out of this glare
If I had one wish
what would I do
hum hum hum hee
ok here it is slow and true
I would just wish for ten of you

 

 

I Know

 

I know why
My mouth is under my nose
Because it would look very weird
Being under my toes
Here I think my maker
Has done a bit of perfection
Neither my nose nor mouth
Stand out with neglection

 

 

Close The Venetian Blinds

 

Go close the Venetian blinds
So Venetian’s won’t look in
And see us building a ship
To take us to them
Don't let them see
The drays and the drafts
Else they may wish to fly up here
And put us under wraps
Go close the Venetian blinds
Do it fairly quickly
I fear they will hear
And go bongo bon go fairly quickly
So please I deplore you
I ask one more time
Before they build their ships
Go close the Venetian blinds

 

 

I’ll Never Tell

 

I’ll never tell
You to go to hell
I am just too polite
But it's a task
So I may ask
You to go tonight
