Wishful Thinking

Desirable thoughts wishful thinking

How I wish, I can bring to life a money tree

A money tree just for me

Wishful thinking am I one that is full of greed

Must I continue to sweat and bleed

Can I pray for a money tree

Branches filled with 100 pound notes 

Roots going deep within the earth

Emerging into a thousand pound notes

How I wish, I owned a money tree  

Lavish with rare exotic flowers

That blossom into a billion twenty pound notes

Why must my thoughts be filled with greed

As I hunger, sweat and bleed wishful thinking

Just once grant me prosperity 

Abundance of wealth and a money tree

Just for Me, please.

Hard times give birth to wishful thinking
