Before you've made your wish, however much it takes
Rest assured they're weighing words in sympathetic ink
Common sense won't pay the rent and doesn't grow on trees
And I don't waste my time suspending disbelief
If I have every bit of faith I won't be turning in my grave
Take the bait and save however much it takes
Run for middle ground
Take the bait and save however much it takes
They face the facts with thinking caps, they map out and display
But splitting hairs can get you anything you need
Before you've made your wish, however much it takes
Take your own advice before you take a side
Take the bait and save however much it takes
But charities and remedy, almost as much as modesty
Masterminds want bottom lines to map out and display
But that's not the only way
Who would have thought connecting dots might get you to the point?
Before you've made your wish, however much it takes
