"If I had a Life"

Narrator: In the land of Miami

In a small house down the street

Lived a young girl named Josy

Writing in her diary

Josy: If only I had a life

Oh how happy I would be

I'll go for crazy rides

And run naked down the street

But I'm stuck in this old house

Slowly but surely dying

Starving day in and day out

I'm gonna start crying

Narrator: So she made a wish

To the star shining so bright

Josy: Dear Mr. Star I want a real life

Narrator: So she went to bed

Hoping that things will be alright

With sweet dreams in her head

While the star above reigned down its magic light

(The next day)

Narrator: She awoke with a start and noticed a slight change

Josy: My bed's on the ceiling and my room has been rearranged

Narrator: Everything in her house seemed like a zoo.

When her mom barged in and said, "Let's take a trip to the moon"

Josy said...

Josy: No mom!

Narrator: She cried

Josy: You know this is true

That I can't even go on a plane and fly

What makes you think I can take a trip to the moon?

Narrator: So her mom went away

And kissed her on her head

She said "we'll call you on the way"

And Josy rolled back into bed

Then a friend came by and knocked on her door

Walked in with a new boyfriend

That she could love and adore.

Josy: Hey friend I'm sorry

I'll take some candy or some toys

Love just isn't for me

I don't think I'm ready for boys

Narrator: Many different offers kept coming her way

But she didn't have the guts to do it

So she kept turning them away

Then she notice

Josy: My life is finally interesting and not a bore

But I'm still on my belly staring at the floor

Having a life isn't the moon, boyfriends or running naked on the beach

Maybe it's about taking advantage of every opportunity

Living life to the fullest

Enjoying all your time

If I only I did this

Maybe I would have a life.
