Cover art for Wishful Thinking lyrics by Wilco

Fill up your mind with all it can know Don't forget that your body will let it all go Fill up your mind with all it can know What would we be without wishful thinking

I get the feeling that verse means that you should wish all you want. Fill up your mind with wishes, because for most of us, we won't do anything about those wishes anyway. We just let those thoughts go.

Chambers of chains With red plastic mouths The inside of outside No one has found How to unring the bell It's just as well

How to unring the bell we just rung? When we say something kinky, oops. When we say something stupid, oops! Maybe we shouldn't have said that. How embarassing. It's out there - you can't take it back. Oh Jeff you kinky dude!

I think the rest of you got those other verses.
