Three Wishes
If I had three wishes
What would they be?
Hmm, maybe world peace
Nope I've only got three
Hmm, the first thing I'd wish
Is to win first place
And not to get beaten down
With egg on my face
My second wish, hmm
Now let me think
Give me a minute
I'm right on the brink
The second thing I'd wish
Is to be in the top ten
I'm just covering my bases
In case I don't win
Hmm, this third wish
I'll not wish in haste
For I've already wished two
With just one more to waste
Hmm, I've got it!
A wish I hold dear
I wish that my mother-in-law
Would finally disappear
For Amy's If I had Three Wishes Contest
