Wishful thinking
Get the gist of my description
Been gypped since the beginning
Night shifts on the weekends
Minutes keep on ticking
My friends are downtown drinking without me
Without me, oh
Wishful thinking
A gypsy in the evening
Told me that she knew some magic
She was pretty damn convincing
When I asked to change my status
From servant to a king
Her eyes rolled back when she said listen to me
Might change your chances
If you shake that Magic 8-Ball
Maybe for better or for worse
Better be careful what you wish for
Wishful thinking
Take it back to the beginning
Owner of the business
A broker making millions
Yeah I'm made out of money
But my friends still go out drinking without me
Declining politely
I'm feeling all shook up, I'm broken
No chance for a refund, it's stolen
Now I'm really hoping things go back to normal
When my eyes reopen
Might change your chances
If you shake that Magic 8-Ball
Maybe for better or for worse
Better be careful what you wish for
I never should've wished
To get rich this quick
I never would've tripped
For this magic trick
Never could of, never should of
Never would have known
That I'd still be alone
Might change your chances
If you shake that Magic 8-Ball
Maybe for better or for worse
Better be careful what you wish for
