Rub A Magic Lamp?
Have you heard the one about the genie?
That's one of many ways the joker starts.
Then he dutifully tops up your Lambrini.
Before you know it, he's broken your heart.
You said you always wanted a comedian.
You said you thought he might have been the one.
Instead it turns out this one's a chameleon.
Disguised, he took advantage: your're undone.
You got what you wanted and oh, so much more.
Now you know the meaning of "Be careful what you wish for."
You've got a brand new job; it's so exciting.
You've got your own internal phone number.
The high wages were amazingly inviting.
But your colleagues couldn't possibly be dumber.
You're the one who's meant to be in training.
Yet you're the one they turn to when in need.
You thought your new career gave your life meaning.
But now your life is very dull indeed.
You got what you wanted and oh, so much more.
Now you know the meaning of "Be careful what you wish for."
You've moved into new shared accommodation.
It's just a bit more pricey than before.
You've awaited it with great anticipation.
It's everything that you were looking for.
To say your flatmate's unclean's quite an understatement.
You didn't think that humans could survive
In this biohazard wasteland-like apartment.
Now you thank God for each day you're still alive.
You got what you wanted and oh, so much more.
Now you know the meaning of "Be careful what you wish for."
