Ey
Make a wish, girl
You deserve it
Uh-huh, yeah

Baby, I've seen the chick you're with, wish that I never did (uh)
Freakin' perfect and five foot ten, just wanna punch her lip (yeah)
'Cause I know I've been wastin' time, tryin' to get your eye (uh)
Yeah, I know that I've been so blind, thinkin' that I'm your type

And now I'm at home, I'm all alone
'Bout to pick up the telephone
Got to call my genie, so he knows, yeah

I wish I was tall, and I wish I was fast
Wish I could shop with a bag full of cash
'Cause if I want you, I gotta have that (come, come, kiss me, boy)
I wish I had style, and I wish I had flash
Wish I woke up with a butt and a rack
'Cause if I want you, I gotta have that (come, come, kiss me, boy)

Uh-huh, yeah

Baby, I'm gonna keep it real, boy, you're the one I want (uh)
I don't own any five-inch heels, just got my Nikes on (yeah)
Never thought I was insecure, boy, look at what you done (what you done)
I don't know what I studied for, clearly I like 'em dumb

And now I'm at home, I'm all alone
'Bout to pick up the telephone
Got to call my genie, so he knows (so he knows, yeah)

I wish I was tall, and I wish I was fast
Wish I could shop with a bag full of cash
'Cause if I want you, I gotta have that (come, come, kiss me, boy, yeah)
I wish I had style, and I wish I had flash
Wish I woke up with a butt and a rack
'Cause if I want you, I gotta have that (come, come, kiss me, boy)

Hey, now don't you wanna do some, baby, with the roof gone, baby?
Aston Martin look retarded like the coup gone crazy
I'm not sure what kind of fella you like
But I can get you paradise, have it however you like

I'm talkin' Solitaire iced out, ring, watch, necklace
Ain't no talkin' reckless, girl, I'm certified respected, girl
You like to run your mouth, you about to learn a lesson, girl
Yeah, you the one, but I'll replace you in a second, girl

And I ain't even tryin' to see you naked, girl, wait
There I go exaggerate, clearly carried away
But what I'm sayin', you can true that, I wanna be wherever you at
So you wishin' you can kiss me, do you really want to do that-at?
Make a wish, girl (yeah)

I wish I was tall, and I wish I was fast
Wish I could shop with a bag full of cash
'Cause if I want you, I gotta have that (come, come, kiss me, boy)
I wish I had style, and I wish I had flash (oh yeah)
Wish I woke up with a butt and a rack
'Cause if I want you, I gotta have that (come, come, kiss me, boy)

I wish I was tall
'Cause if I want you, I gotta have that (come, come, kiss me, boy)
I wish I had, I wish I had, I wish I had, yeah, yeah, ooh
'Cause if I want you, I gotta have that (come, come, kiss me, boy)

About This Song

"I Wish" is a playful yet bittersweet pop anthem about jealousy and self-doubt in relationships, where Cher Lloyd fantasizes about using magic to transform herself into the "perfect" girl her love interest is with instead. The lyrics blend vulnerability with sass as she compares herself to his new girlfriend, expressing both insecurity and defiant attitude through vivid imagery like wanting to "punch your lip" and calling on a genie for help. Musically, the track combines Lloyd's signature bratty pop style with T.I.'s smooth rap verses, creating a catchy, radio-friendly sound that balances pain with empowerment. The song captures the universal experience of feeling inadequate when comparing yourself to someone else, while ultimately celebrating self-acceptance and moving forward. It showcases Lloyd's ability to turn personal insecurity into an infectious pop moment that resonates with anyone who's ever felt like they weren't "enough."
