almost the wish you wished for did come true
pointed out the good fairy softly
there it is under the Tree, and are you
really going to ruin Christmas
just because you can't see can you
how almost the wish you wished might
be the one you really wanted?
she waited. we unwrapped at last
the shiny paper, curling ribbons
new oh spanking new as anything
bright could be.
whatever it was I won't-
she won't I mean
tell you.
you'll just have to find out
yourself
when it happens to you!
