So I could fly away and leave you all behind.
Maybe sometimes I wish I were a tortoise.
Then I could tuck away in my shell
Whenever I don't want to hear it.
Maybe sometimes I wish I were a pencil
Always sharp and to the point.
Maybe sometimes I wish I were rich
That way i could replace heartbreak with money.
Maybe sometimes I wish there was no war
And no premature diabetes.
Maybe sometimes I think I see things, hear things
That are too good to be true.
"Maybe sometimes" just doesn't cut it
For those of us who breathe in reality
Because this world is brimming with opportunity
And for those who doubt, it is a brutality.

Maybe sometimes I wish I were a bird
So I could fly away and leave you all behind.
Maybe sometimes I wish I were a tortoise.
Then I could tuck away in my shell
Whenever I don't want to hear it.
Maybe sometimes I wish I were a pencil
Always sharp and to the point.
Maybe sometimes I wish I were rich
That way i could replace heartbreak with money.
Maybe sometimes I wish there was no war
And no premature diabetes.
Maybe sometimes I think I see things, hear things
That are too good to be true.
"Maybe sometimes" just doesn't cut it
For those of us who breathe in reality
Because this world is brimming with opportunity
And for those who doubt, it is a brutality.
