Hey, this is radio station WSKEE
We're takin' calls on the wish line
Making all your wacky wishes come true
HelloI wish I was little bit taller
I wish I was a baller
I wish I had a girl who looked good
I would call her
I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
And a six four ImpalaI wish I was like six-foot-nine
So I can get with Leoshi
'Cause she don't know me but yo she's really fine
You know, I see her all the time
Everywhere I go and even in my dreams
I can scheme a way to make her mine'Cause I know she's livin' phat
Her boyfriend's tall and he plays ball
So how am I gonna compete with that?
'Cause when it comes to playing basketball
I'm always last to be picked
And in some cases never picked at allSo I just lean up on the wall
Or sit up in the bleachers with the rest of the girls
Who came to watch their men ball
Dag y'all! I never understood, black
Why the jocks get the fly girls
And me I get the hood ratsI tell 'em scat, skittle, scabobble
Got hit with a bottle
And I been in the hospital
For talkin' that mess
I confess it's a shame when you livin' in a city
That's the size of a box and nobody knows yo' nameGlad I came to my senses
Like quick-quick got sick-sick to my stomach
Overcommeth by the thoughts of me and her together, right?
So when I asked her out she said I wasn't her typeI wish I was little bit taller
I wish I was a baller
I wish I had a girl who looked good
I would call her
I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
And a six four ImpalaI wish I was little bit taller
I wish I was a baller
I wish I had a girl who looked good
I would call her
I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
And a six four ImpalaI wish, I had a brand-new car
So far, I got this hatchback
And everywhere I go, yo I gets laughed at
And when I'm in my car, I'm laid back
I got an 8-track and a spare tire in the backseat
But that's flatAnd do you really wanna know what's really whack?
See I can't even get a date
So, what do you think of that?
I heard that prom night is a bomb night
With the hood rats you can hold tight
But really tho' I'm a FigaroWhen I'm in my car, I can't even get a hello
Well so many people wanna cruise Crenshaw on Sunday
Well then I'ma have to get in my car and go
You know, I take the 110 until the 105
Get off at Crenshaw tell my homies look alive
'Cause it's hard to survive when you're livin'In a concrete jungle and
These girls just keep passin' me by
She looks fly, she looks fly
Makes me say my, my, myI wish I was little bit taller

You could even speed on the highway

Little Mookie, big Al LorraineYo, you know that's on the real
So if you're down on your luck
Then you should notice how I feel
'Cause if you don't want me around
