I don't need anyone's love 
I couldn't afford it anyway 
With my penny's worth of hope 
It's not funny but it's a joke 
And I got a good one for the collection agency 
It's a wish 
That I could wish the world away 

Don't watch TV it's all lies 
I watch TV day and night 
I believe everything I see 
And I can't turn it off 
The only thing that held me together in the good old day 
Was a wish 
That I could wish the world away 

Where's the message in the bottles 
Where's the miracle in the pills 
Where's the nurse with that needle 
Where's all of my free will 
Count down backwards from ten and everything's okay 
You can wish the world away
