I Wish
[00:03.12] Hey, this is radio station WSKEE
[00:06.30] We're taking calls on the wish line
[00:08.68] Making your wacky wishes come true...
[00:11.08] Hello?
[00:11.88] I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller
[00:14.81] I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her
[00:17.19] I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
[00:19.05] And a six-four Impala
[00:21.70] I wish I was like six-foot-nine
[00:23.30] So I can get with Leoshi
[00:24.63] 'Cause she don't know me but, yo, she's really fine
[00:26.49] You know I see her all the time everywhere I go
[00:29.15] And even in my dreams, I can scheme of ways to make her mine
[00:31.53] 'Cause I know she's livin' phat
[00:33.13] Her boyfriend's tall and he plays ball,
[00:34.99] So how am I gonna compete with that?
[00:36.58] 'Cause when it comes to playing basketball
[00:38.45] I'm always last to be picked, and in some cases never picked at all
[00:41.35] So I just lean up on the wall
[00:42.95] Or sit up in the bleachers with the rest of the girls
[00:45.08] Who came to watch their man ball
[00:46.41] Dang, y'all! I never understood, black
[00:48.27] Why the jocks get the fly girls and me, I get the hood rats
[00:51.18] I tell 'em, "Scat, skittle, sca-bobble"
[00:53.58] Got hit with a bottle and put in a hospital for talkin' that mess
[00:56.24] I confess it's a shame
[00:57.57] When you livin' in a city that's the size of a box
[01:00.23] And nobody knows yo' name
[01:01.81] Glad I came, to my senses
[01:03.67] Like quick-quick, got sick-sick to my stomach
[01:05.79] Overcometh by thoughts
[01:06.60] Of me and her together, right?
[01:08.18] So when I asked her out, she said I wasn't her type
[01:10.84] I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller
[01:13.76] I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her
[01:16.16] I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
[01:18.55] And a six-four Impala
[01:20.41] I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller
[01:23.32] I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her
[01:25.99] I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
[01:28.10] And a six-four Impala
[01:30.50] I wish I had a brand new car so far, I got this hatchback
[01:33.42] And everywhere I go, yo, I gets laughed at
[01:35.54] And when I'm in my car I'm laid back
[01:37.41] I got an 8-track, and a spare tire in the backseat, but that's flat
[01:40.33] And do you really wanna know what's really wack?
[01:42.46] See, I can't even get a date, so what do you think of that?
[01:44.84] I heard that prom night is a bomb night
[01:46.43] With a hood rat you can hold tight
[01:47.50] But really though, I'm Figaro
[01:49.10] When in my car, I can't even get a hello
[01:50.43] Well, so many people wanna cruise Crenshaw on Sunday
[01:53.35] One day I'ma have to get in my car and go
[01:54.93] You know I take the 110 until the 105
[01:57.33] Get off at Crenshaw, tell my homies, "Look alive!"
[01:59.73] 'Cause it's hard to survive
[02:01.31] When you're living in a concrete jungle
[02:03.17] And these girls keep Passin' Me By
[02:05.57] She looks fly, she looks fly
[02:08.22] Make me say, "my, my, my"
[02:09.54] I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller
[02:12.73] I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her
[02:15.12] Wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
[02:17.51] And a six-four Impala
[02:19.38] I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller
[02:22.30] I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her
[02:24.95] Wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
[02:27.07] And a six-four Impala
[02:29.46] I wish I was a little bit taller (I wish I was a little bit taller)
[02:32.92] I wish I was a baller (Wish I was a baller)
[02:34.77] I wish I was a little bit taller, y'all (I wish I was a little bit taller, y'all)

[02:39.30] I wish I was a little bit taller, y'all (I wish I was a little bit taller, y'all)
[02:41.70] I wish I was a baller (Wish I was a baller)
[02:44.35] I wish I was a little bit taller (I wish I was a little bit taller, y'all)
[02:46.47] I wish I was a baller (Yeah)
[02:49.39] Hey, I wish I had my way
[02:50.71] 'Cause every day would be a Friday
[02:52.05] And you could even speed on the highway
[02:53.90] I would play ghetto games
[02:55.78] Name my kids ghetto names:
[02:57.35] Little Mookie, Big Al, Lorraine
[02:58.96] Yo, you know that's on the real
[03:00.81] So if you're down on your luck
[03:02.14] Then you should know just how I feel
[03:03.74] 'Cause if you don't want me around
[03:05.33] See, I go simple, I go easy, I go Greyhound
[03:08.24] Hey, you, what's that sound?
[03:10.91] Everybody look what's goin' down
[03:13.30] Ah, yes, ain't that fresh?
[03:15.68] Everybody wants to get down like that
[03:18.34] Wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller
[03:21.28] I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her
[03:23.93] Wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
[03:26.31] And a six-four Impala
