If Wishes Were Horses
If wishes were horses...
If wishes were horses
"failures" would be fusses
Failure would itself fail
As we would wish (it) away.
If wishes were horses
Beggars would ride.
With worded words
Worries would erode.
If wishes were horses
Nigeria would be healthier
And the batton holders wiser
Knowing we could wish them away.
If wishes were horses
We would all be fat
Food and comfy pleasure
Would not be far.
If wishes were horses,
Sugar coated curses
Would be very obvious.
We would all be conscious.
If wishes were horses
We would never have to pray
We would just need to wish
Our wants into existence.
If wishes were horses
Oh if wishes were horses ...
But wishes are not horses.
They are only but wishes.
