Artist Discography

Farma Giles:
If I had longa arms I would push the clouds away,
If I could climb behind your eyes to see how you see me,
I would paint the world brightly and make the oceans see through,
I would banish all vanity we all can be beautiful,
seldom have i held a shell and the heard the sea,
normally I'm woken up by the sounds of the street
if only it was me who married mother nature
If I could be her lover more than ground would quake
I could be moon raker turning stones in space
I could go to Mars and build an image of my face
if i had visions of death I would take out my eye
if only god created me with the ability to fly
I could take my flag and fly it and stay close to the sun
one day i'll fly away because the world is gone
If i destroyed the hierarchy would it bring anarchy?
If I could balance out the good and bad energies I would strive for peace,
in all lands and tongues in the names of royal sons and daughters
born with earthly wisdoms
If i could only have known TV makes you alter,
brain waves left dormant so you'll never interfere.

{Chorus: If I had a wish I'd wish for infinite wishes,
though there's no point in wishing if it don't come true
childhood got me clutching to dreams already broken
singing wishing and hoping stark naked in the open}

Chester P Hackenbush:
If I had a wish I'd wish myself a brighter day,
If that dream came true then I'd try & wish again.
If could turn into water I would jump into the sea
& if I could become you I would go and talk to me
If I became time I wonder how long would I last?
& would the future never happen if I became the past?
If I was currency I would proudly kill myself,
I seldom hear the sound of the seaside inside a shell
{he wakes up to the streets as well}
but if only i didn't, if only I was living in harmony with nature's rhythm,
& if I was a wizard I would conjour up a butterfly water lady
& be her water baby, if I was a genius I'd invent a time machine
then go back in time and change the way we used to be,
but if I was a genius I guess I would have known,
that there's no hope in wishing if it don't come true.

{Chorus}

Eno Red Rum:
If I had a wish, I'd wish for summer all year
if I could walk around the planet with no feeling of fear
I would change the world's shape and turn the sky turqoise
I'd let you watch my whole life by looking into my eyes
my seashell's empty with no seaside memories
I wish my sleep weren't disturbed by the street
If I could be a bomb then I would self-destruct and
if you ran out of time would I givve a fuck
I wish MPCs were only 25p
and my music was the thing that brung entire world peace
I wish, I wish I had a wish
if I could breathe underwater then I would stroll with the fish
if only I had been Adam, running naked trough the trees
I would the earth my garden and plant thousands of trees
If I had been your father figure you long would of knew
don't believe in wishes coz they don't come true

{Chorus}
