If I could have just one wish Maybe for an hour I'd wanna be a woman And feel that phantom power Maybe I'd wanna stick around for a while Until my heart got broke Maybe then I could find out if I'm a half decent man Or if I'm just a joke If I could be the first woman president I'd take on air pollution I'd walk the streets of Baghdad at dawn To find a real solution Write down my soul for the people to read I'd make my secrets known I'd probably be assassinated first day in office Or die somewhere alone It's no excuse to be obtuse It's no excuse to be deaf dumb and blind When evolution is a thing of no use It likes to call itself intelligent design So here's the world in the palm of my hand How come I'm feeling so tender It's a mans world I've heard it since birth I'm out of touch with my gender I wanna feed the hungry I wanna heal the sick I wanna stifle the causes of sufferin' and hate I wanna know my enemy by the look in his eyes I wanna stop all this madness before it's to late I don't care of you think I've gone crazy Messianic delusion's a back breaking grind I've got a dog and a gold and a friend in the navy Don't know nothing about intelligent design It's no excuse to be brutal It's no excuse to be vile It's no excuse to wanna die for religion Or hang an innocent child It's no excuse to be a slick politician When the whole of New Orleans is drowning in brine I'm not mistaken it was Darwin's position That the hole in the levee was caused by intelligent design
