The Genie's Wish
[Instrumental]
*(Verse 1)*
A young man stood with sorrowed heart,
His wife was gone, they'd been torn apart,
A year had passed since her last breath,
He longed to undo the grip of death.
In the dusty lamp he found that day,
An evil genie hidden away,
"One wish is yours," the genie said,
"Set me free, and raise your dead."
[Instrumental]
*(Chorus)*
Never trust a genie's word,
For twisted truths are often heard,
What you wish may come to be,
But nothing's free, nothing's free.
Beware the wish that seems so sweet,
For doom will follow at your feet.
*(Verse 2)*
The man, he wept, his heart did race,
"I wish my wife back in her place,
As she was before she passed,
Healthy, whole, with breath to last."
The genie smiled, his freedom won,
With a snap, the deed was done,
The wife appeared, her face so pale,
The man's joy soon began to fail.
[Instrumental]
*(Chorus)*
Never trust a genie's word,
For twisted truths are often heard,
What you wish may come to be,
But nothing's free, nothing's free.
Beware the wish that seems so sweet,
For doom will follow at your feet.
*(Bridge)*
"She looks so sick," the man cried out,
The genie grinned without a doubt,
"I brought her back as she once was,
Sickly, dying-that's the cause."
"She will die again, you cruel fiend!"
The man's anger, sharp and keen,
The genie laughed, his task complete,
"Yes, she will, and I am free!"
[Instrumental]
*(Chorus)*
Never trust a genie's word,
For twisted truths are often heard,
What you wish may come to be,
But nothing's free, nothing's free.
Beware the wish that seems so sweet,
For doom will follow at your feet.
*(Outro)*
The genie vanished into the sky,
As the man watched, his wife would die,
Once more he lost her to the grave,
All for a wish he thought would save.
So heed this tale, if you may see-
Never trust a genie to set you free.
