Wunschliste
I wasn't born into a dynasty with a hundred cars in a garage each
and an aeroplane that can fly me round the world
I had to settle for a family in a one bed flat with an old settee
and a kettle that could whistle to the birds
and if I had my way I wouldn't change a thing
I wouldn't be the man I am today
I'd still stand there and wait to share the kitchen sink
then say tarra I'm going out to play
I wasn't born into a dynasty with a heliport and a limousine
and a grand parade to announce that I'd arrived
I had to settle for a family with a barking dog and a parakeet
and a guinea pig that was trying to survive
and if I had my way I wouldn't change a thing
I wouldn't be the man I am today
I'd still stand there and wait to share the kitchen sink
then say tarra I'm going out to play
you will never know if you ate your food with a silver spoon
and you can never have the bond that we had with the folks in the Neighborhood
I wasn't born into a dynasty with a second home on a private beach
and a motorboat I could take out for a ride
I had to settle for a family we had an old saloon with a missing wheel
it spent seven years just stranded on the drive
each and every day holds a memory
a memory they can never take away
and the feelings left inside money couldn't buy
we had a one bed flat with a loving family
so if I had my way I wouldn't change a thing
I wouldn't be the man I am today
I'd still stand there and wait to share the kitchen sink
then say tarra I'm going out to play
There my memories and I wouldn't change a thing
