what if lyrics

one day

what if one day?

what if I say?

I wish I was a tree and then suddenly I was a tree, then could I wish myself back?

no trees cant wish

what if I wished I was a wishing tree?

a tree that could wish

what if I wished I was a toilet bowl

and then I was one, and the wind changed

and I stayed that way?

or, that if I wished I was a toilet bowl, and suddenly I was a tree?

would I be able to say "hey I wanted to be a toilet bowl not a tree no I wouldn't be able to say that, trees cant talk they don't have any mouth

I would have to have the foresight to say "I wish I was a toilet but if I changed id turn into a tree instead, I wish Id be a tree with a mouth and could wish anything and change back into a human being, because Id only ever want to be a toilet or a tree for a varied period of time.

I guess

this is the exact reason

why they always say

you should be very careful what you wish for
