Reached back for the bottle
And rubbed against the lamp
Genie came out smiling

Like some Eastern tramp
He said hey boy what's happening
What is going on

You can have three wishes
If you don't take too long
I said well

I wish they all were happy on the Lebanon
Wish somebody'd help me write this song
I wish when I was young

My old man had not been gone
Genie said consider it done
There's something in the air

And you don't know what it is
You see someone through a window
Who you've just learned to miss

And the road leads on to glory but
You've used up your last wish
Your last wish

And you want her to come home
Genie said I'm sorry
But that's the way it goes

Where the hell's lamp sucker
It's time for me to go
Bye

There's something in the air
And you don't know what it is
You see someone through a window

Who you've just learned to miss
And the road leads on to glory but
You've used up your last wish

Your last wish
And you want her to come home.
