I Wish Lyrics By Skee Lo

    hey this is radio station wskee
    we’re taking calls on the wish line
    making your wacky wishes come true
    hello

    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
    i wish i had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
    and a six four impala

    i wish i was like sixfootnine so i can get with leoshi
    ’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 livin’ 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 talkin’ that mess
    i confess it’s a shame
    when you livin’ in a city that’s the size of a box and nobody knows yo’ name
    glad i came to my senses
    like quickquick got sicksick 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
    i wish i had a girl who looked good i would call her
    i 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
    i 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
    and everywhere i go yo i gets laughed at
    and when i’m in my car i’m laid back
    i got an 8track and a spare tire in the backseat but that’s flat
    and do you really wanna know what’s really wack
    see i can’t even get a date so what do you think of that
    i heard that prom night is a bomb night
    with a hood rat t’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’mma have to get in my car and go
    you know i take the 0 until the 05
    get off at 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
    i wish i had a girl who looked good i would call her
    i 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
    i 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 was a little bit taller
    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
    i wish i was a baller

    hey i wish i had my way
    ’cause every day would be a friday 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

    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
    i 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
    i wish i had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
    and a six four impala

    i wish i wish
    i wish i wish
    i wish i wish
    i wish i wish
    i wish i wish
    i wish i wish
