here's "the wishing song," as sung by gonzo to madeline kahn in 1974.
I wish I had a coat of silk, the color of the sky.
I wish I had a lady fair, and then a butterfly.
I wish I had a house of stone that looked down on the sea.
But most of all I wish that I was someone else but me.
Now I don't have a coat of silk, but I still have the sky.
Now I don't have a lady, but there goes a butterfly.
Now I don't have a house of stone, but I can see the sea.
Now most of all I know that I am happy to be me.
I'm happy to be me.
