What If

Eric Martin

5

What if, what if somebody body

put some ovaltine in your lemonade

What if, what if the space invaders

took your microwave

Your hour's over and you still don't understand

Your head is empty and it's buried in the sand

What if, what if the sky falling

and it's headed for your face

What if, what if no one was there to save,

save the day

So send your money

and your conscience will be clear

but don't believe in everything

that you might hear

It's not my job to keep you happy and amused

I am not your mother,

won't be driving you to school

And I'm not a preacher or dashboard figurine

just another poster boy, in a trashy magazine

What if, what if I'm not the God

that you ought to be looking for

What if, what if here in the mirror

I'm as stupid as you are

Your hour's over and you still don't understand

Your head is empty and it's buried in the sand

It's not my job to keep you happy and amused

I am only human and I wish that you were too

I'm no super hero I just play on TV

the miracle you're looking for

is only in your dreams

What if life wasn't so F***** hard?
