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 ground,
For 50 million hands up raised 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, I wish, I wish and I guess it carries on.
