If
If you were the model,
I would have learnt to paint,
laugh if you were comedian,
And sorry that you ain’t.
If you were an author,
I would always read your book,
If you were a runner,
I would time each lap you took.
If you were a milkman,
I would have an extra bottle,
If you were an f1 driver,
I’d cheer your full throttle.
If you were a singer,
I would listen to each tune,
If you were an astronaut,
I’d watch you on the moon.
If you were a banker,
I would ask you for a loan,
If you were a jeweller,
I’d watch you with precious stone.
If you were a teacher,
I’d be the best kid in school,
If you were a swimmer,
I’d admire you in the pool.
If you were a fundraiser,
I’d put cash in your tin,
If you were a barmaid,
I’d be ordering a gin.
If you were a dancer,
I’d watch every graceful move,
And if you were a scientist,
I’d watch you theories prove.
If you were a carpenter,
I’d watch you hammer nails,
If you were a train driver,
You’d keep me on the rails.
If you were a jockey,
I’d be cheering for your horses
If you were a soldier,
I’d cheer you within the forces.
If you were a tour guide,
Then I’d love to watch the view,
Yes, anything you were,
Then I’d be there because it’s you!!
