Three Wishes Lyrics - Singles - Roger Waters

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 were all happy in 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 the 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 the 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 the 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
