Lyrics:
If I could have just one wish Maybe for an hour I'd wanna be a woman And feel that phantom power Maybe I'd wanna stick around for a while Until my heart got broke Maybe then I could find out if I'm a half-decent man Or if I'm just a joke If I could be the first woman president I'd take on air pollution I'd walk the streets of Baghdad at dawn To find the real solution I'd bear my soul for the people to read I'd make my secrets known I'd rather really be assassinated first day in office Or die somewhere alone It's no excuse to be obtuse It's no excuse to be deaf, dumb and blind When evolution is a thing of no use It likes to call itself the intelligent design
So here's the world in the palm of my hand How come I'm feeling so tender It's a man's world, I've heard it since birth I'm out of touch with my gender I wanna feed the hungry, I wanna heal the sick I wanna stifle the causes of suffering and hate I wanna know my enemy by the look in its eyes I wanna stop on this madness before it's too late I don't care if you think I've gone crazy Messianic delusion is a back-breaking crime I've got a dog and a goldfish and a friend in the navy Don't know nothing about intelligent design It's no excuse to be brutal It's no excuse to be vile It's no excuse to wanna die for religion I harm an innocent child It's no excuse to be a slick politician When the whole of New Orleans is drowning in brine I'm not mistaken it was Darwin's position That the whole new evidence was caused by intelligent design
