Three Wishes

==========================

Reached back for the bottle
And rubbed against the lamp
Genie came out
smiling
Like some Eastern tramp
He said hey boy what's happening
What is going on
You can have three wishes
If you don't take too
long
I said well
I wish they all were happy on the Lebanon
Wish
somebody'd help me write this song
I wish when I was young
My old
man
had not been gone
Genie said consider it done
There's something
in the
air
And you don't know what it is
You see someone through a
window
Who you've just learned to miss
And the road leads on to glory
but
You've used up your last wish
Your last wish
And you want her to
come home
Genie said I'm sorry
But that's the way it goes
Where
the
hell's lamp sucker
It's time for me to go
Bye
There's
something in
the air
And you don't know what it is
You see someone
through a window
Who you've just learned to miss
And the road leads on
to glory but
You've used up your last wish
Your last wish
And you
want her to
come home
