Won't somebody turn the lights on

It's getting kind of dark in here

Think I'll hang out with a bad crowd

Drink myself into the new year

I'm taking off work today

Driving downtown for an early matinee

Trying to keep the blues away

What I'm trying to say is

That I'm a little tired of taking care

Of everyone but myself

I put it on the wishlist (Ohh)

I put it on the wishlist (Ohh)

I've been feeling this way forever

I decide to wait 'til December

And put it on the wishlist (Ohh)

Just put it on the wishlist (Ohh)

I had a dream that I moved away

I was waiting for my song to play

Thought it was gonna be next

Once I was through I could rest

Loosen the knot in my chest

But it never came

Sorry it's not what you wanted

I tried my best

I did it for you

Filled up our tiny apartment

I thought that you wanted me to

I'm a little tired of taking care

Of everyone but myself

I put it on the wishlist (Ohh)

I put it on the wishlist (Ohh)

I've been feeling this way forever

I decide to wait 'til December

And put it on the wishlist (Ohh)

Just put it on the wishlist (Ohh)

I'll have it all

Silk sheets and curtains on the wall

And a tiny dog named Couscous

I'll bring to every mall

We'll shop for diamond collars

I'll spend a million dollars

No one can tell me what to do

I'm gonna take my turn

Take my turn

Watch and learn

Take my turn

I'm a little tired of taking care

Of everyone but myself

I put it on the wishlist (ohh)

Just put it on the wishlist (ohh)

I've been feeling this way forever

I decide to wait 'til December

And put it on the wishlist (ohh)

I guess I'll put it on the wishlist (ohh)

I guess I'll put it on the wishlist (ohh)
