I Want The Impossible Lyrics

I wanna write a book that sings
I wanna ride a horse with wings
I wanna walk on water
I wanna hold my unborn daughter

But these few things could never happen
But I can't help want for them
Maybe it's just my nature
Time rolls over again

I wanna squeeze a man till he was dead
I want money makers mean what they say
I wanna know the answers to all the questions
I wanna vomit out ill thought like drunken poison

But these few things could never happen
But I can't help want for them
Maybe it's just my nature
Time rolls over again

I wanna float above the bed when I have sex
I wanna taste the milk of human kindness
I wanna have a penis for a day
I wanna skip round the world and play

But these few things could never happen
But I can't help want for them
Maybe it's just my nature
Time rolls over
Time rolls over time rolls over again

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Isn't it 'I want money makers to mean what they've said'?
