If Wishes Were Horses Lyrics - Just Go Ahead Now: A Retrospective - Spin Doctors

The streets are lined with gold 

The cheese is full of mold 

Oh, come into the fold with me 

Global domination 

While it sparks my imagination 

It kills the vegetation 

Ant it's not my cup of tea 

The stairs are high and winding 

My brother is divining 

The empire is declining 

But the wine is old 

It's never sweet enough 

And a little too tough 

And they play a bit too rough 

And they talk a little bit too cold

Say there's another color 

Just say it on a bet 

You know it's true 

Though you haven't heard it yet 

They're playing it for keeps 

Like pieces on a board 

You know it's true 

Though you haven't heard before 

Welcome to the decline 

It's going just fine 

It's good for the wine 

And it's good for the forces 

You can run but you can't hide 

And beggars would ride 

If they had the horses 

Photos 

If wishes were horses 

Beggars would ride 

If wishes were horses 

Beggars would ride 

If wishes were horses 

Beggars would ride 

If wishes were horses 

Oh, beggars would ride 

Beggars would ride 

The carousel is burning 

The model's eyes are yearning 

The tables aren't turning 

But the lunch is free 

And it's never cheap enough 

And it's always the same stuff 

And they forever call your bluff 

And forever get their fee 

Say there's another color... 

There is no limitation 

Set upon this nation 

What is our station 

And relationship? 

What about the pollution 

And the constitution? 

What is the purpose 

Of this burning branch I grip? 

If wishes were horses 

Beggars would ride...
