This song reflects on the importance of taking proactive action, making thoughtful decisions, and overcoming challenges by likening the process to making wishes with guidance from a metaphorical “drunk wizard.”
[Chorus]
Like a drunk wizard in my ear
Whispering words I'd like to hear
"Make your wish son, make it quick
Choose yer words wisely so they'll stick"
Like a drunk wizard (In my ear)
Whispering words (I'd like to hear)
"Make your wish son, make it quick
Choose yer words wisely so they'll stick"
[Verse]
I don't make wishes, I make things happen
Let the tide drag me out, find my own way back
Zero expected, myself erected
People might try to pull you down, expect that
My partner and I, we don't take shit
Enough getting thrown around to clog a toilet
You might think it's funny, assure you it's not
Make a good wish, fish, you better put in enough thought, yeah
[Chorus]
Like a drunk wizard in my ear
Whispering words I'd like to hear
"Make your wish son, make it quick
Choose yer words wisely so they'll stick"
Like a drunk wizard (In my ear)
Whispering words (I'd like to hear)
"Make your wish son, make it quick
Choose yer words wisely so they'll stick"
[Verse]
Go to bed at 10, back awake at 3
The kind of mind I've got - gotta ask what it means
Happens all the time - start reading up
Time of the night, black magic's stirring up
Make a wish now, a wish without a price
Make it so I can get the right sleep tonight
Eyes open up to the sun, now a sigh of bliss
Sweat's all gone now, good thing I made a wish
[Outro]
We crack at it, if we don't it doesn't work
Can't make a wish unless we're gonna do the work
Dug a deep hole and I'm glad we fucking did
Gotta make a sacrifice, get this straight this
