I'd climb up on the leaves and trees and slide down on my hands and knees!

Well, that may be somebody's dream but it's not as good as mine.

If I had my way I'd shun today and take a journey back in time.

I'll wait for someone brilliant to invent a time machine,

Then sell my body to raise the cash to fulfil my every dream.

I'd take some gold into the past and buy a plot of land,

Then hold it 'til the present day and sell it for a million grand!

I'd arm myself with sports results, then bet on all the races.

With prior knowledge I can't wait to see the shock on bookies' faces.

I'd warn JFK to stay away from Dallas in November

And find out if a certain inn was full on that long ago December.

I'd have a word with my young self, and counsel her to eat much less

Of fish and chips and bread and jam, so I can wear a smaller dress.

I'd head into the future next to see what kind of mess it's in,

And see if they've discovered yet the secret to me getting thin.

Then come back to the present day with the secret in my pocket,

Tell Jenny Craig to take a hike, and watch my finances skyrocket.

With all the cash that I could  make, I wouldn't have to do a thing.

I'd even hire someone smart, to do my homework, save me thinking!
