I Wish

I Wish - Skee-Lo
[Intro]
Hello? I wish I was a little bit taller I wish I was a baller

[Chorus]
I wish I had a girl who looked good I would call her
Wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat and a six-four Impala
I wish I was like six-foot-nine so I can get with Leoshi

[Verse 1]
'Cause she don't know me but yo she's really fine
You know I see her all the time everywhere I go
And even in my dreams I can scheme of ways to make her mine
'Cause I know she's living phat her boyfriend's tall
And he plays ball so how am I gonna compete with that?
'Cause when it comes to playing basketball
I'm always last to be picked and in some cases never picked at all
So I just lean up on the wall or sit up in the bleachers
With the rest of the girls who came to watch their man ball
Dag y'all I never understood Black
Why the jocks get the fly girls and me I get the hood rats
I tell 'em scat skittle scabobble
Got hit with a bottle and put in a hospital for talking that mess
I confess it's a shame when you living in a city
That's the size of a box and nobody knows your name
Glad I came to my senses like quick-quick got sick-sick to my stomach
Overcometh by thoughts of me and her together right?
So when I asked her out she said I wasn't her type
I wish I was a little bit taller I wish I was a baller

[Chorus]
I wish I had a girl who looked good I would call her
Wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat and a six-four Impala
I wish I was a little bit taller I wish I was a baller
I wish I had a girl who looked good I would call her
Wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat and a six-four Impala
I wish I had a brand new car so far I got this hatchback

[Verse 2]
And everywhere I go yo I gets laughed at
And when I'm in my car I'm laid back
I got an eight-track and a spare tire in the backseat but that's flat
And do you wanna know what's really wack?
See I can't even get a date so what you think of that?
I heard that prom night is a bomb night with a hood rat you can hold tight
But really though I'm Figaro when in my car I can't even get a hello
Well so many people wanna cruise Crenshaw on Sunday
One day I'ma have to get in my car and go
You know I take the one-ten until the one-oh-five
Get off of Crenshaw tell my homies look alive
'Cause it's hard to survive when you're living in a concrete jungle
And these girls keep passing me by she looks fly
She looks fly make me say my my my
I wish I was a little bit taller I wish I was a baller

[Chorus]
I wish I had a girl who looked good I would call her
Wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat and a six-four Impala
I wish I was a little bit taller I wish I was a baller
I wish I had a girl who looked good I would call her
Wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat and a six-four Impala
I wish I was a little bit taller

[Bridge]
I wish I was a baller
I wish I was a little bit taller y'all
I wish I was a baller
I wish I was a little bit taller y'all
I wish I was a baller
I wish I was a little bit taller y'all
I wish I was a baller
Hey I wish I had my way 'cause every day would be a Friday

[Verse 3]
And you could even speed on the highway
I would play ghetto games name my kids ghetto names
Little Mookie Big Al Lorraine yo you know that's on the real
So if you're down on your luck then you should know just how I feel
'Cause if you don't want me around see I go simple I go easy I go Greyhound
Hey you what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down
Ah yes ain't that fresh? Everybody wants to get down like that

[Chorus]
Wish I was a little bit taller I wish I was a baller
I wish I had a girl who looked good I would call her
Wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat and a six-four Impala
I wish I was a little bit taller I wish I was a baller
I wish I had a girl who looked good I would call her
Wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat and a six-four Impala

[Outro]
I wish I wish
I wish I wish
I wish I wish
I wish I wish
I wish I wish
