[Verse 1] Do you know what I wish for At the end of a too long day When I'm done with guests from foreign lands With PR shoots shoots and shaking hands When the press has had their questions asked When my multitasking multitask Do you know what I wish for In a house that will never be a home [Verse 2] Do you know what I want most When my daughter is gone to sleep When the [?] on the TV shows Have mocked my hair and accent clothes When the gossip mongers cease to buzz Over ancient news that never was When I've been debriefed [?] When I've tallied weight that's lost or gained Do you know what I want Do you know what I want In a house that will never be a home
[Verse 3] A shadow in the dark A late night snack A bath to comfort my aching back Another problem a favorite book A private moment in some undiscovered book But I need more than a drink I need more than just a book More than presidential homes More than presidential cars More than presidential yacht More than presidential planes More than presidential bars More than presidential homes That will never be a home [Verse 4] As I lay in a warm bath At the end of a too long day Do you know what I wish for Out of all good things on Earth I want the daughters of my birth Daughters of my birth
